How is structural distress experienced by resident physicians?
In this paper, I feature a paper by Sukhera, Kulkarni and Taylor who describe structural distress as a distinctive form of moral distress. When it comes to resident physicians, structural distress centers upon the experience of powerlessness leading them to go above and beyond the call of duty, potentially worsening their psychological well-being. When that happens, faculty play a buffering role through role modelling vulnerability and involving residents in policy decisions.
