Wellness at the Department of Anesthesiology
The Department of Anesthesiology is committed to promote health and wellness 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 Wellness Committee has started a few initiatives including it’s own Peer Support Program.
Peer Support Program
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 hospital-wide Peer Support Program, managed via employee health (EH), directed by Dr. Mariah Quinn.

Supporter of their choice
