Wellness Committee

The Hospital Medicine Wellness committee, lead by Bridget McGrath PA-C and Nicole Gier, LCSW promotes and encourages initiatives that allow Section members to prioritize both their mental and physical health. This committee was created in recognition of shared concerns regarding daily apprehensions and experiences lived by clinical providers and staff navigating the anxiety, loss, and uncertainty of work constraints along with personal stressors during the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Examples of activities and resources provided by the wellness committee to the section include free subscriptions to the Ten Percent Happier app, a Conversations on Wellness panel, and meals for providers working during COVID-19 peaks. The committee aspires to continue encouraging section participation and prioritize team unity and wellness by planning outdoor group activities and panels related to voiced areas of interest such as managing finances.
