Pediatricians Avoid Burnout while Addressing Opioids Crisis in a Rural Community  

We are excited to announce that Holy Cross Medical Center’s own pediatrician, Dr. Veronica Parker, was a contributor to an important article published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)! The article, titled “The Healing Power of Partnership: Pediatricians Avoid Burnout While Addressing Opioids Crisis in a Rural Community,” explores how pediatricians in rural communities collaborate to tackle the ongoing opioid crisis while finding ways to support each other and avoid burnout.

This vital work highlights the power of partnerships and community in addressing a challenging public health issue. We are proud to have Dr. Parker on our team and grateful for her dedication to both her patients and the greater Taos community.
