It is the goal of this Program to set up our residents up for success. We are aware that there are risks for physician burnout during residency training as recognized nationwide. Our Resident Well-Being Initiative is a partnership of the Graduate Medical Education and Banner University Medical Center and is designed to address this problem directly by inspiring a culture that values, prioritizes, and fosters well-being in our residency training community. Through this trainee-institution partnership, we hope to encourage our residents’ self-care and personal growth.
Program Support - The Program takes a special interest to ensure that the residents remain cohesive and sociable even outside the hospital. Group events are regularly arranged and provides the opportunity for socialization at one of Tucson’s many local restaurants or breweries. The GME as well as Banner Healthcare sponsor events which are opportunities to interact with residents and trainees from other local programs.
