Kansas City University's THRIVE program aims to teach resiliency for future doctors

March 24, 2023

KANSAS CITY, Mo. —We've all heard the term "burn-out" in the last few years - the chronic stress from your job.

But the healthcare industry has been hit especially hard. The American Medical Association says 63% of physicians are burning out.

Kansas City University is implementing a program to help its future doctors thrive. And it's called, appropriately, Thrive. It's a pilot program funded with a $1.6 million grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration, a branch of the federal government's Health and Human Services.
