In this discussion, ACGME Senior Scholar for Well-Being Stuart Slavin checks in on the mental health and emotional wellness of residents, faculty and others at institutions that sponsor training programs across the US. Well-Being scholars Mukta Panda (University of Tennessee-Chattanooga), Jonathan Ripp (Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai), and Larissa Thomas (University of California—San Francisco) join him to examine the multiple impacts Omicron has left in its wake, including implications for reimagining graduate medical education for the future. The team explores some system and individual strategies the GME community can cultivate in response to these impacts, while acknowledging the ongoing need to be creative, resourceful and supportive in unprecedented times.
