Wellness

Retreats, a Balint group, a YMCA membership, and time set aside to be together outside the clinic.

Residency is demanding. Residents and faculty spend time together outside work, and the program sets time aside for it.

Retreats

Once a year, residents and faculty go on a retreat together, away from the clinic and the hospital. Each class also has its own retreats during residency.

Resident activities

Residents spend time together: board game nights, waterfall hikes, trips to the coast, wine tasting, the farmers market, and Music on the Half Shell in the summer.

Didactics and reflection

Didactics include dedicated time for wellness activities. PGY-1 residents join a Balint group, a structured place to reflect on the challenges and rewards of caring for patients and on the physician-patient relationship. We celebrate each other with holiday parties, birthdays and other gatherings through the year.

Physical health

Residents have a YMCA membership, and there is workout equipment at the hospital and the clinic.
