Something physicians are not used to, is waiting, and not being in control; such as waiting for an expected surge in COVID-19 patients that has not yet arrived. Brenda Senger, director of the Saskatchewan Medical Association’s Physician Support Programs calls it, ‘Anticipatory Anxiety.” But she says, despite the anxiety of today, physicians and residents will be most in need of emotional supports after the pandemic ebbs and they reconnect with their emotions. A provincial working group has developed a COVID-19 Pandemic Mental Health and Wellness Response team. Their goal is to care for physicians, residents and front line health-care workers potentially impacted by the virus as they care for others.
