Program and Institutional Coordinator Well-Being: Results From a National Survey
Many graduate medical education coordinators experience significant job dissatisfaction, burnout, and mental health challenges. Improving coordinator well-being requires addressing workload, appreciation, and administrative support.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education Research
- Occupational Health Psychology
Background:
- Graduate Medical Education (GME) relies heavily on program and institutional coordinators.
- The well-being and job satisfaction of these coordinators are crucial for the effective functioning of GME programs.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess the mental health, job satisfaction, and turnover intentions of GME coordinators.
- To identify key job satisfiers and dissatisfiers impacting coordinators in GME.
Main Methods:
- A national survey was distributed to 11,887 GME program and institutional coordinators and managers.
- The survey utilized validated scales for depression, anxiety, and burnout, alongside questions on job satisfaction and intent to leave.
Main Results:
- Over 23% reported moderate to severe depression, 30% moderate to severe anxiety, and 38% screened positive for burnout.
- Nearly 21% were dissatisfied with their jobs, and over 27% intended to leave within a year.
- Positive interactions were key satisfiers, while administrative burdens, workload, pay, and lack of appreciation were major dissatisfiers.
Conclusions:
- GME coordinators face substantial mental health and job satisfaction challenges.
- Addressing stressors and enhancing satisfiers is vital to improve coordinator well-being and retention.
- Raising awareness of these issues is essential for supporting the GME enterprise.
