The Department of Medicine, as part of organizational emphasis on physician wellness, prioritizes resident and physician wellness. We encourage the use of wellness days allowing residents to attend their own appointments. We sponsor monthly events to encourage residents to decompress outside the hospital setting. Recent events include a private guided tour of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, private tour of the New York City Highline, Paint and Sip and wine tour of eastern Long Island. We also sponsor an annual wellness week promoting discussion of wellness with quick “breaks” for coffee, and 10 minute chair massages.
