Resident Retreats
Each year, our program holds a dedicated retreat for every class. These day-long retreats are designed to build skills tailored to each PGY year, foster camaraderie through team-building exercises, and, above all, prioritize resident wellness.
Retreats are typically held at an off-campus venue. The first half of the day features a structured program, while the second half is reserved for relaxing, enjoying clinical time off, and connecting with classmates.
Our goal is simple: to give each class a day to step away from clinical responsibilities and focus on the well-being of themselves and one another.
