A recent publication in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association by Dr. Mary Beth Spitznagel, a professor in the Department of Psychological Sciences, and her research collaborators found that their intervention called “Unburdened” is effective when delivered as an asynchronous training course. This finding is important because the field of veterinary medicine is incredibly stressful. The research team previously showed that their Unburdened program was effective in reducing stress and burnout for veterinary healthcare workers, using a face-to-face format. This more recent research shows that the program is effective in an asynchronous format, that gives the program an avenue for greater sustainability, access, and scaling up so that the research team can bring this program to more people.
