Abstract

General practitioners (GPs) are exposed to severe levels of stress during their working experience. Such stress has been shown to be physically and mentally damaging to GPs and can increase intentions to quit the profession. Literature suggests that resilience can reduce the impact of stress. Through an extensive literature review, this paper will propose a model to understand the influence of resilience on GPs, their levels of burnout, and ultimately their intentions to quit the profession.
