Resident Wellness
¶¶Òõpro's psychiatry residency program prides itself on being a leader in physician wellness initiatives.
¶¶Òõpro Our Resident Wellness Initiatives
This committee began its Wellness Champion program in 2017, with faculty, coordinators and trainees encouraged to be ambassadors of change to their individual programs.
Within our psychiatry residency, Catalina Belean, M.D., and associate program directors Emily Rodgers, M.D., and Kelsey Roberts, M.D., are dedicated to improving physician well-being through education, research and new strategies targeting systemic change in the medical work environment.
Wellness Activities and Events
The program focuses on a positive resident culture and team building, with both formal program-organized activities and many resident-led events. Recent examples include a conflict resolution-themed resident retreat, the annual holiday party and a welcome picnic.
Most importantly, residents have active roles in the decision-making committees of the residency program, so their concerns are quickly brought to the attention of faculty and systemic change can be made.
Overall, our program strives to train outstanding psychiatrists that are compassionate, healthy and well-educated so that they can help each patient live their most well life.
