Student Wellbeing
At the Larner College of Medicine, we understand that
medical school is a unique time filled with exciting and challenging new
experiences. Our office seeks to promote the wellbeing of all students through
dynamic and flexible resources and programming, as well as care that is
accessible to all. Further, we aim to support students while also empowering
them to explore their own vision of wellbeing. Our mission is guided by the
tenets of Professionalism
here at Larner. To build the health of our community, we are led by compassion
for ourselves and for one another, and we bring kindness and respect to each of
our interactions. Fostering our own wellbeing allows us to be humble and caring
stewards for each other while maintaining excellence in patient care, research
and education. We are committed to maintaining a learning environment that
promotes equity and wellbeing amidst a spirit of collaboration. We strive to
develop physicians who endeavor to integrate wellness into a profession that is
dedicated to the service of others. We prioritize a supportive environment that
destigmatizes seeking help, where students can safely build the skills and
resilience necessary for the practice of medicine. We are proud to support the
Larner community with a philosophy of responsive and approachable care.
We also invite you to visit the Larner College of Medicine Wellness Committee webpage. The Wellness Committee is a group of faculty and student-elected medical student representatives who spearhead several projects and initiatives to improve student health and wellbeing.
