Grow your capacity with Coaching for Doctors

Coaching for Doctors specialises in supporting and building the capacity of the healthcare workforce, helping you reduce the risk of mental ill health, improve wellbeing and prevent burnout. Our programs offer varying levels of support and include:

• Individual coaching for doctors through our Recalibrate Doctor Care Program and Flourish program.
• Organisations and workplaces can access Respond Diamond an online wellbeing and self care skills program for healthcare workers, designed to support and nurture your staff through prevention and strengthening their capacity, building collective skills and therefore the future of the organisation.
• Individual healthcare workers can participate in the Respond for Individuals online program, or Mindfulness in Medicine micro course.
• Customised workshops and key note speaking, contact us to discuss your needs

A supported workforce is engaged, team focused, maintains perspective and is clear thinking, is empowered to ask for help and has hope… they flourish.

Hello, I’m Sharee. I work as a Coach and a Psychologist.
Doctors employ a coach to help them:

• Perform at their peak
• Lead others
• Deal with their workplace challenges
• Manage their career proactively
• Relate more effectively with their colleagues and patients
• Maintain or regain their own well-being consistently
• Develop skills in relaxation
• Build personal resilience

‘Coaching for Doctors: A Balanced Life’ explores how coaching can help you in your work as a doctor and as an employer of doctors in four key ways:

•  Deliver excellent patient care, improving health outcomes for the patient
•  Achieve work-life balance for doctors
•  How the systemic use of coaching can improve the whole healthcare system
•  Prevent burnout systemically by using coaching as a means to build individual skills.

Healthcare leaders cannot continue to support systems and structures that lead to high levels of burnout in doctors and nurses year after year. The healthcare system is simply not sustainable in this context. Healthcare organisations could be and should be, healthy for everyone including every doctor. Coaching doctors can help achieve this goal.

This paper, by Sharee Johnson, explores how the systemic use of coaching can help healthcare develop the skills of doctors so that they can lead teams more effectively and take better care of themselves, their colleagues and their patients. Coaching embedded at the most systemic level could mean that this more developed workforce could alter the healthcare system significantly to be safer and more effective for all.
