Medical school can be an exciting and challenging time for students.
Along with those challenges can come new sources of anxiety and stress. While we're learning ways to help our patients care for themselves, it sometimes seems as though we're being asked to neglect our own health and well-being in the name of success. To help medical students cope with the stressors of medical school, and to capitalize on opportunities to help our patients, AMSA has assembled this webpage of resources relating to medical student well-being. The information found on this site can help you understand issues of wellness, and learn ways to educate, motivate, and facilitate change at your med school. Changing unhealthy trends in medical education may not be easy, but we, as well as our patients, deserve it.
