2 Presentation Objectives ▫Describe the importance of teaching about wellness and well-being during residency. ▫Discuss the definitions of wellness and well-being used in the IMR. ▫Describe the tools used to assess resident wellness and well-being. ▫Review the preliminary findings about IMR resident wellness and well-being. ▫Discuss teaching strategies to promote IMR resident wellness & well- being.

3 Integrative Medicine in Residency (IMR) is… Competency-based, online, 200-hour, curriculum. In-depth training in Integrative Medicine. Incorporated through all 3 years of Family Medicine residency. Piloted at 8 residencies nationwide. Seamless, online evaluation of the curriculum and the residents. Responds to ACGME competency requirements. Evaluation developed simultaneously with the curriculum.

5 Importance of Teaching About Wellness & Well-being  Residency is a powerful, formative experience in adulthood.  Establishing physician identity, schema of patient relationships, work habits, and self care.  Physician Burnout  Estimates of physician burnout: 25% - 70%.  Onset linked to residency training.  Distress in Residency  Dramatic increases in depression, anxiety, and drug use.  Increased cynicism, decreased empathy, poorer overall performance.  Consequences  Psychological problems under diagnosed and under treated.  Physician stress and burnout linked to lower-quality patient care.  Habit of ignoring self care perpetuated in life after residency.

6 IMR and Wellness & Well-being  IMR uniquely positioned to shift graduate medical education toward physician wellness.  Prevention and wellness are central in course content.  Opportunity to explore and describe resident wellness & well-being longitudinally.

7 IMR Wellness & Well-being Definitions  Wellness behaviors: Specific behaviors and lifestyles that promote optimal physical, psychological, and spiritual health (Carlson et al., 1997).  Sense of Well-being (multiple dimensions):  Satisfaction with Life: Global judgment of quality of life (Diener et al., 1985).  Sense of Happiness: Pleasant affects (Pavot & Diener, 2008).  Psychological well-being: Absence of psychological distress (Ryff et al., 1995; Keyes et al., 2002).  Positive Personal Characteristics: Qualities of mindfulness, a grateful disposition, and emotional intelligence in the context of interpersonal relationships.

8 Wellness Behaviors Assessed in the IMR Behavior Moderate physical activity (30 min/da) Fruits & vegetables (5/da) Vitamins/other dietary supplements Meditation Prayer PMR/other relaxation Yoga Tai Chi or Qi Gong Behavior Massage Outdoors in nature Nurturing relationships Restful sleep Alcoholic drinks per week Smoking (y/n) Rx for mood, anxiety, stress, sleep (y/n)
