Wellness in the Department of Medicine

The Department of Medicine will fund up to four 12 month small grants of $2500 each. The goals of this program are:

1. To stimulate new, innovative wellness projects which have a strong potential to improve wellbeing among their population of focus.
2. To empower the University of Colorado Department of Medicine faculty, staff, and learners to use quality improvement to improve wellbeing for their teams

Priority will be given to projects with a strong rationale; that have the potential to be scaled to larger populations; and that can be achieved within the specified budget and timeframe. Learn more and apply.

The Department of Medicine Staff Mentorship Program was developed to help staff find experienced mentors who can guide them on their professional journeys and is tailored to the unique needs of administrative staff within the department. 

For questions, please contact Cheryl Loudd.

Wellness at the Table was modeled after COMPASS Groups at Mayo Clinic, which saw a decrease burnout as much as 15 percent. Open to all Department of Medicine staff, faculty (APP's, MDs, DO, PhD's) and trainees, these self-formed groups of 6-7 participants meet 6 times in six months for at least one hour over a meal, and talk about a topic from a list of topics developed for the groups.

If you are interested please contact Kara Price.
