Welcome
The Department of Anesthesiology is committed to promote health and wellbeing of all of its members including faculty, clinical anesthetists, residents, medical students, administrators, and staff.
The goal is to establish a strong wellbeing and work-life balance of all members of the Department of Anesthesiology, including faculty, residents, fellows, CA’s, APP’s, NP’s and administration. As part of an ongoing effort, the Wellbeing Committee (formerly the Wellness Committee) has launched it’s own Peer Support Program.
Membership
The Wellbeing Committee is open to all Department Members. Please contact Co-Chairs for more information about joining the committee.
What is Peer Support?
Confidential, legally protected connection to a clinical peer for support after experiencing difficult and stressful work events.
The Department of Anesthesiology’s Peer Support Program works in conjunction with the UW-Health Peer Support Program, managed via employee health (EH), directed by Dr. Mariah Quinn.
