Abstract

Background: The discussion of resident burnout, depression, and suicide has become more prominent amongst programs across the country as well as the ACGME. Residency is an intense period of our lives where we spend more time at work and less time with our families, compounded with the difficult patient encounters we experience. Unfortunately, these results increased rates of resident burnout, depression, and suicide. Due to the nature of residency and the education residency provides, we cannot change the hours or which patients residents see and must foster wellness within the work environment.
