The UCR School of Medicine Resident & Fellow Well-Being Program supports and promotes the wellness of individuals in our graduate medical education programs through education and incentive programs.

We supporting everyone's well-being through:

  • The review and dispersal of wellness resources.
  • Promoting teamwork and collegial relationships.
  • Teaching residents and fellows strategies to support and promote personal wellness.
  • Increasing resident and fellow awareness of red flags, triggers, and risk factors that may compromise wellness.

Each residency and fellowship program will include a "Wellness Champion" who will provide input in scheduling events and activities and coordinating with other program organizers and participants.
