Dink Jardine, MD, chair of the ACGME's Back to Bedside Advisory Work Group, recently participated in a discussion on NEJM Resident360 about physician well-being and wellness focusing on the resident and fellow experience.

The ACGME participated in the third meeting of the National Academy of Medicine's (NAM) Action Collaborative on Clinician Well-Being and Resilience, which gave the public an opportunity to engage with experts on diversity, inclusion, and loneliness.

The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) has released a video featuring ACGME President and CEO Thomas J. Nasca, MD, MACP, AAMC President and CEO Darrell G. Kirch, MD, and National Academy of Medicine President Victor J. Dzau, MD.

These resources were compiled to support local efforts to improve resident, fellow, and faculty member well-being and help physicians in distress as part of the ACGME's commitment to promoting physican well-being.

The ACGME looks forward to reviewing initial findings and studying the complete results. The organization is committed to supporting all Sponsoring Institutions and programs in meeting our requirements and prioritizing well-being.

These resources are designed to support and promote wellness in the clinical learning environment. They support the elements of Section VI of the Common Program Requirements, which emphasize psychological, emotional, and physical well-being.

The ACGME has created informational videos as part of a national commercial spot for CNN Headline News. The videos spotlight the organization's focus on improving resident education and confronting the changing health care landscape.

The Journal for Graduate Medical Education (JGME) published a new article around the examination and 2017 revisions of the Common Program Requirements.

Thirty proposals were selected for their ability to enhance the resident/fellow-patient connection, and foster joy and meaning in work. A total of $130,000 at different funding levels will be awarded, renewable up to two years.
