With rising burnout among health professionals, academic medical centers are faced with the challenge of sustaining well-being.
An academic medical department established the Wellness Initiative Supporting Health (WISH) small grant program to support locally developed wellness-related activities. This assessment describes the feasibility and early outcomes of implementing the WISH projects.
Between 2018 and 2022, 36 of 69 (52%) proposals received funding. Projects focused on individual wellness strategies, team-building activities, and networking events. Grant recipients reported enhanced wellness for activity participants and strong agreement that the program should continue.
Implementing low-cost, sustainable wellness initiatives at a "local" level of academic medical centers are feasible.
随着医疗专业人员职业倦怠情况日益严重,学术医疗中心面临着维持员工身心健康的挑战。
一个学术医学部门设立了支持健康的健康倡议(WISH)小额资助项目,以支持当地开展的与健康相关的活动。本评估描述了实施WISH项目的可行性和早期成果。
在2018年至2022年期间,69份提案中有36份(52%)获得了资助。项目侧重于个人健康策略、团队建设活动和社交活动。受资助者报告称,活动参与者的健康状况得到改善,并且强烈赞同该项目应继续开展。
在学术医疗中心的“本地”层面实施低成本、可持续的健康倡议是可行的。
