Moral Injury: Interview with Wendy Dean, MD

Co-hosts Ron Baker and Ed Kless talk with Dr. Wendy Dean, author of If I Betray These Words. Dr. Dean, a psychiatrist and co-founder of the nonprofit Moral Injury of Healthcare, explores the profound ethical dilemmas faced by professionals today. Through the lens of her groundbreaking book, Dr. Dean discusses the concept of moral injury—the psychological distress that occurs when individuals feel unable to act according to their ethical and moral values. She shares real-life stories from the frontlines of healthcare, highlighting the emotional toll on professionals who are often caught between the demands of a healthcare system and their commitment to patient care. Ron and Ed pursue with her the idea that moral injury applies to professionals in other fields as well.
