The Office of Student Affairs in conjunction with the Director of Counseling and Wellness Services offer a number of targeted programs to enhance wellness, promote positive mental health and prevent burnout among medical students. Specific examples of wellness programs we offer include outreach sessions, peer support, and personalized biofeedback and structured napping. These programs are offered throughout the year to discuss issues of particular relevance to medical students.
Wellness tips and events are offered throughout the school year in support of personal wellness. Take a look at our most recent events facilitated through our SASS Office!
The “Paws-a-tively Stress Free” event was in collaboration with Counseling Services and organized for students to help them take a break and relieve stress. Wellness events organized by our office are developed based on topics that contribute to personal growth and positive life habits.
In addition to events that promote well-being, we can help you create a plan to establish the following healthy habits:
Balancing Academics and Social Activities: Focus on setting priorities and managing time to ensure academic success and a positive social life.
Good Sleep Habits: Learn how to apply useful techniques to help get a good night’s rest.
Making Time to Exercise: Learn how to create a realistic schedule to incorporate exercise into your day.
Nutrition: Always look for opportunities to explore healthy eating habits and nutrition.
