Physicians and trainees face unique stressors that can affect their health and well-being. Physician Health Programs (PHPs) provide a confidential, effective pathway to support healthcare professionals while promoting patient safety, offering assessment, referral, health verification support, and advocacy in a non-punitive framework.
The Washington Physicians Health Program (WPHP) is pleased to share that PHP resources are now featured on the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education’s (ACGME) Learn at ACGME platform, expanding national awareness and access to residency and fellowship programs. ACGME is a private, nonprofit organization that sets and enforces educational standards for U.S. residency and fellowship programs.
This work reflects the leadership of FSPHP, including Dr. Chris Bundy, WPHP Executive Medical Director and FSPHP Chief Medical Officer, and contributions from colleagues across graduate medical education, including Dr. Stuart Slavin, ACGME Vice President, Well-Being, and members of the ACGME Affinity Group on Access to Mental Health Care, which aims to improve mental health support for residents and fellows.
