COVID-19 Residency Wellness Resources

Hey residents,

It is a difficult time for the world, and especially so for our frontline healthcare workers. In the midst of everything, it is important to continue caring for yourself. Below is a list of wellness resources compiled by a member of our Health & Wellness Committee, fellow residents, and staff to help you through this period.

We invite you to send us any resources you may be personally using and would like to share with your fellow residents. We will seek to regularly update this page with resources you can make use of during this time.
