Contact us. Neurosurgery Residency. We strongly believe that wellness is at the core of successful residency training.

Attention to well-being is essential for optimizing learning, promoting compassionate and highly skilled patient care, and career satisfaction. To this end, we take a multi-faceted approach to promote wellness within our program. We have developed a formal wellness curriculum built into our educational didactic sessions.

The overarching goal of this curriculum is to help residents navigate the unique challenges of intensive residency training. Formal lectures focus on topics including sleep and fatigue, burnout and depression and moral distress. Additionally, our resident and faculty wellness champions lead residents through debriefing sessions around difficult clinical encounters.

Through education and systematic change, we strive to provide residents the essential tools to recognize challenges and develop resiliency to address them directly. Multiple pre-scheduled days off are provided for residents during discrete rotations to allow for time to attend personal appointments and provide self-care. Informally, the Department of Neurology sponsors monthly activities for residents to promote relationships outside of the hospital.

Additionally, residents organize regular outings amongst themselves to take advantage of everything that Denver and the Rocky Mountains has to offer including activities such as hiking, biking and skiing trips. The GME at the University of Colorado also provides interactive online modules focused on resident wellness.

Career Development. We strongly believe in our obligation to prepare residents for their future careers and to provide a well-rounded experience so that residents are prepared for future practice, no matter what direction they take.
