May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and this month the ACGME will shine a spotlight on resources for enhancing the well-being of all in the GME community.

This inaugural day aims to unite national and institutional leaders, policymakers, patients, communities, and health workers across professions. It is sponsored by the National Academy of Medicine Collaborative, co-chaired by President and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Thomas Nasca.

Dr. Nasca and two others received the inaugural National Award for Outstanding Leadership in Support of Clinician Well-Being for their work as co-chairs of the National Academy of Medicine's Action Collaborative on Clinician Well-Being.

The ACGME today hosted the fifth public meeting of the National Academy of Medicine’s (NAM) Action Collaborative on Clinician Well-Being and Resilience focused on “Redesigning the Clinical Learning Environment.”

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.

This special edition of the ACGME's weekly e-Communication includes a statement on personal protective equipment and new Frequently Asked Questions the ACGME is receiving regarding accreditation and recognition activities during the pandemic crisis.

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 report, Documenting a Day of Discussion: Ahead of the Crest of the Wave Creating the National Agenda for Systemic Change for Enhanced Clinician Well-Being, is now available for review in Learn at ACGME.

With planning and enrollment underway for the SECOND trial, the ACGME decided to interview principal investigators Karl Bilimoria, MD, MS and Yue-Yung Hu, MD, MPH to get more background and information about the study and how to participate.
