Wellness
Our residents participate in a variety of Wellness activities each year.
Resident Well Being and Resilience
The physical, psychological and emotional well-being of residents and faculty members is of paramount importance to THMEP and our ACGME-accredited training programs. We recognize the importance of a focus on both preventing burnout and cultivating resilience and well-being. In addition to program-specific activities, THMEP distributes a monthly newsletter and sponsors optional monthly wellness activities, below are photos from a few recents events.

We are committed to creating a vibrant community where everyone feels valued and motivated to participate in activities that enhance their overall well-being. Join us in making wellness a priority and enjoy the benefits of spending quality time with fellow residents.
