MDDUS conducts annual membership surveys to better understand the experiences of our members and the challenges that impact their practice.
Featured: Compassion Fatigue
6 in 10 healthcare professionals have experienced compassion fatigue as a result of their job.
This hidden, secondary trauma is leading practitioners to severe burnout and impacting the patient care they feel able to give. Our 2024 survey explored this unseen pressure and examined mental health in the workplace.

This report from our 2024 survey shares our members’ experience of compassion fatigue, as well as inter-related factors such as mental health, suicidal ideation and the numbers who are considering leaving the profession.
