Whose Problem Is It? The Priority of Physician Wellness in Residency Training

There is a discrepancy between the perspective that residents and PDs have on resident wellness, and its priority within the residency program. PDs may not be aware of the scope of the problem of resident wellness. These problems increase with year of training, and may be more common in community programs. Current wellness programming may not be effective, and a significant minority of residents feels that wellness is beyond the scope of the training program.
