The Wellness Collaborative will model best practices and provide professional development to promote a culture of wellness and belonging for medical students, faculty, and staff. The Collaborative will pursue opportunities to support the activities of other Collaboratives, as wellness is a theme that intersects with all our activities as educators.
Some recent areas of focus include:
- Submitting workshops with a wellness theme for COMSEP meetings
- Providing wellness activities during the annual COMSEP meeting
- Providing Wellness Tips to the COMSEP community through Wellness Discussion threads on the community Board or contributions to the weekly Buzz
- Promoting wellness by supporting peers, patients, and students in distressing environments and times
- Developing and promoting perseverance, resilience, and grit
- Combatting moral distress, moral injury and psychologically unsafe environments
We welcome input, ideas, and opportunities for collaboration! If you are interested in topics related to wellness, please contact us and consider joining the collaborative.
Leaders: Latasha Bogues, Deborah Rana, Lesley Gardiner
