The fast pace of military operations and frequent deployments affect the entire military community. For health care providers treating military personnel, the intense demands on their time and personal resources can lead to burnout, compassion fatigue, and secondary traumatic stress. Through psychoeducation and self-assessments, Provider Resilience gives frontline providers tools to keep themselves productive and emotionally healthy as they help our nation’s service members, retirees, and their families.

The Provider Resilience home screen gives a quick snapshot of the user’s overall resilience rating – generated through user self-assessments – and a countdown clock showing how long until the user’s next vacation. Compassion fatigue, burnout, and secondary traumatic stress ratings are automatically generated, allowing users to monitor their professional quality of life over time.


Provider Resilience also features stress-busting and compassion satisfaction-building tools. Military Meditation Coach podcast episodes help users learn mindfulness and meditation techniques. Physical exercise cards and inspiration quotes give users a break from daily stress.


Provider Resilience was developed by psychologists at DHA Connected Health, which is the branch of the Defense Health Agency responsible for reviewing, evaluating, coordinating, and integrating the use and development of health technology supporting Military Health System (MHS) beneficiaries. These technologies include virtual health, mobile apps, mobile web, virtual reality, augmented reality, and wearable devices.
