Abstract

Burnout and moral injury within medicine have steadily increased over the last decades, especially among those providing care during the COVID-19 pandemic. The term burnout has been used to describe clinician distress and a syndrome of emotional exhaustion, a diminished sense of personal accomplishment, and depersonalization. Burnout has a significant impact on both job performance and patient care. Moral injury occurs when external circumstances interact with a person's cherished beliefs and standards. When the tension between them cannot be reconciled, the felt integrity of the individual is disrupted and the person experiences distress. The consultative aspect in consultation-liaison psychiatry (CLP) presents challenges that may predispose the young clinician to burnout and moral injury, especially during fellowship training. CLP psychiatrists also have a liaison role that could catalyze systemlevel change to enhance the mental well-being of their colleagues. This article reviews clinically relevant psychodynamic aspects of burnout and moral injury during CLP training. In addition, the authors propose strategies to enhance career growth and prevent and address moral injury during training to generate fulfilling professional development.
