Moving away from familiar surroundings and adjusting to the demands of residency can be overwhelming, not only for the residents but also for their spouses and partners. To help, we've created a comprehensive toolkit for residency programs, providing essential information and resources designed to foster a sense of community and promote overall wellness throughout the residency journey. Supporting physician families is vital, especially since over 50% of physicians experience burnout—a challenge that strong family support can significantly mitigate. If you're in charge of residents, consider utilizing our free toolkit to learn how to better support your physicians and their families. By focusing on both, we can reduce burnout, enhance overall well-being, and strengthen community connections. https://lnkd.in/gb6-Ezqs

Resources and Community for Physician Families at the Moments that Matter Most
About us
The MedCommons is an online magazine and community that provides resources and community for physician families as they navigate the unique challenges of medical careers, including family and spousal relationships, money, health, and wellness. Our website features accessible support and ways for the physician family community to connect with one another as they navigate the unique challenges of supporting a loved one with a medical career. We also understand that the medical moves physician families make to support a spouse in a residency or fellowship can be lonely or isolating. That’s why we offer an online community, The MedCommons Circle, that encourages connection with other physician spouses who can empathize and provide vital comprehensive support. The MedCommons Circle is accessed through the website and is a free, safe way for physician spouses and partners to connect locally when moving for residency. A great addition to any GME wellness program or medical spouse group.

It’s been shown that employees with a strong support system at home report higher levels of work engagement and job performance and are more likely to engage positively with colleagues. This, of course, also applies to physicians. This kind of engagement fosters a culture of collaboration, teamwork, and job satisfaction among physicians and staff and can even extend to improved patient care and experience. If you're a practicing physician, think about your support system as you went through training and beyond. Did having the support of your spouse/partner make you a better physician? Spouses/partners are THE biggest source of emotional support for physicians and an integral part of overall physician wellness. How are you utilizing this vital resource as part of your wellness plans?
