Mini-Fellowship in Wellness Leadership
The goal of this mini-fellowship is to provide Emergency Medicine residents with the knowledge and skills to effect positive change in the areas of well-being, resilience, and engagement at their programs and institutions.
This mini-fellowship will take place over the course of one year. It will begin with a half-day workshop held during the CORD Academic Assembly 2023 and continue with a series of online journal clubs/didactics facilitated by faculty members of the CORD Resilience Committee. Each resident will be responsible for the development of a longitudinal wellness project with guidance from the mini-fellowship leadership and their mentors. All mini-fellowship residents will be included as members of the CORD Resilience Committee and encouraged to participate in projects sponsored by the Committee. Graduation from the program will take place at the CORD Academic Assembly in 2024.
By the end of this mini-fellowship, residents will be able to:
Understand and explain basic concepts relevant to wellness, including but not limited to resilience, mindfulness, positive psychology, burnout, and second victim syndrome/second trauma phenomenon.
Reflect on their own styles (leadership, communication), beliefs, strengths, and weaknesses and understand how these facets of themselves affect their own wellness and how they might ameliorate any problems they find.
Develop a plan for change management at their own institution, both current and future
