    AbstractEmergency Medicine is a rewarding discipline but 'burnout' can be a problem that Emergency Physicians (EPs) wishing to sustain a long career should take steps to avoid. Particular issues affect those working in regional and remote areas where professional isolation and lack of support may potentially predispose to burnout. Issues specifically affecting senior EPs, especially cognitive and physical decline have largely been neglected. Allowances should be made for experienced EPs approaching retirement from clinical work but who may also still have much to offer.© 2019 Australasian College for Emergency Medicine.
