    Partnered with: RW Resident Wellness Medicine is a stressful profession with many demands on our time, our attention, and our energy. All this takes a toll though. At any given time 25-75% of residents are burned out (1) and residency is the “nadir of personal wellness in a physician’s career.” (2) Physician burnout has serious consequences;. It leads to poorer patient care and increased medical errors along with increased rates of substance abuse, suicide, and intent to leave practice. (3) It is our duty to ourselves and to our patients to maintain our optimal physical and emotional health. We often talk about how important it is to take care of our patients but rarely talk about taking care of ourselves. We want you to care for yourselves just as you would care for any of your patients. As very high functioning individuals, physicians routinely satisfy the top needs of Maslow’s hierarchy. 1.

Although the practice of medicine can be immensely rewarding and fulfilling, the intense demands often take a toll on our personal well-being. Burnout has serious repercussions for physicians and increases problematic behaviors such as alcohol use, strains our personal relationships, and can even lead to suicidal ideation.
