On March 30, 2022, the AMA held a webinar in the AMA STEPS Forward® series: “Setting Boundaries for Preventing Fatigue and Building Resilience.”

How can physicians avoid heading down the road of fatigue, exhaustion and ultimately burnout? During this AMA STEPS Forward™ webinar, participants learned the value and necessity of setting limits and how doing so positively affects personal well-being. Together, webinar participants identify strategies for developing, implementing and maintaining healthy boundaries.

Attendees were asked to consider examples of personal boundaries and challenged to choose one to try. Additionally, speakers explore tools and resources available from the AMA that can help.
