Resident wellness is emphasized by both the University of Utah and our urology residency program.
Our program supports monthly resident wellness activities which are initiated both by the residency program directors and the residents themselves. Past activities have included:
- Intern welcome brunch/hike
- Ladies’ brunch
- Resident/PD luncheons/brunches
- Axe throwing
- Real Salt Lake professional soccer games
- Escape room
- Resident knowledge bowl/dinner
- Department holiday party
- Resident ski day
- Resident and family bowling
Additionally, the program sponsors a wellness lecture series including prior lectures on ergonomics in the operating room, financial planning, and psychology tools for wellness. Residents also have access to resources in the University of Utah Resiliency Center, the University of Utah GME Wellness Office, and the University of Utah Work Wellness Center.
