Stern’s Professionalism Model
“Professionalism is demonstrated though a foundation of clinical competence,
communication skills and ethical and legal understanding, upon which is built the
aspiration to wise application of the principles of professionalism: excellence, humanism,
accountability, and altruism.”
Stern: Figure 2-1 A Definition of Professionalism pg 19; “Measuring Medical Professionalism” Oxford Press 2006.

Clinician Health & Wellness• Little education on topic• 30-60% MD are distressed and at burnout• MS & residents• ↑ Primary care (IM, FP, ER)• MDs suicide > other prof. & gen pop.
– One physician per day; PhD – unclear– Grossly underestimated– Depression/bipolar & substance abuse = suicide

Clinician Health & Wellness• Gender differences:
• Females > anxiety, depression, burnout• F>M MD suicides (>50% vs 40% higher risk)• Women chairs more stressed• Male physicians (regardless of race) live longer than other
professionals
• Reduced use of care by physician• Stigma & anonymity – slow to prioritize MH issues
for physicians; licenses, etc.
