House Staff Wellness

Being a resident at a major teaching hospital is a rewarding but demanding experience: You work long hours and may face emotional, physical, and intellectual challenges on a daily basis. In order to provide patients with the best care possible, you also need to take care of yourself. 

RUMC is committed to providing resources to help our residents  manage the daily demands of being a physician in training.
