Resident Life

Support & Resident Wellness

We recognize the importance and need for a strong Wellness Program for our residents. Our Wellness Committee is committed to developing curriculum that addresses health and wellness topics our residents may face that focuses on a healthy work-life balance. Each resident has a faculty advisor with the expectation to meet a minimum of two times a year.

In addition, institutional support from our House Staff Council and Graduate Medical Education Wellness Program to provide counseling and support services to our residents.
