At Mountainside, we support wellness by:

1. Making a hospital environment that is warm and supportive. We have an open, casual culture and encourage discussion between people of all levels of training. If a resident is struggling, we focus on giving feedback quickly, privately, and constructively.
2. Ensuring residents have time and energy to enjoy non-medical facets of life.

Concretely, we support resident wellness by:

1. Having shifts that are a maximum of 12 hours. No 24s, ever.
2. Having an on-site gym for residents and teaching attendings.
3. Establishing the Resident Wellness Committee, which plans events

Some of our Wellness Activities include:

1. GME Funded Outings (Local Restaurants)
2. Annual Resident Retreat (Team Building)
3. Gym Competitions
4. Wednesday Run Club (Faculty and Residents)
5. Holiday Parties
6. Hospital Parties
