Description

First Do No Harm provides medical practitioners with information and resources on strategies for self care as an essential element of their professional life.

It aims to encourage medical practitioners to recognize and discuss the challenges facing them, promote self care as an integral and accepted part of the professional life of medical practitioners, and assists medical practitioners to develop useful strategies for self care.

Rowe and Kidd explore the too often ignored issue of physician self-care and highlight the dangers of ignoring this problem.
