Wellness Program
GME Wellness Committee
We believe the wellness and well-being of our residents and fellows is the utmost importance. Our patients depend on them to be at their best in both mind and body and deliver the highest standard of care. Residency and fellowship training are exciting and rewarding but can also be challenging physically, mentally, and spiritually. We are committed to our residents and fellows educational experience and ensure resources are available to stay focused and productive. The guidelines are defined by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) in Section VI.C. of the Common Program Requirements.
