Well-Being Month 2025: Parenting with Purpose: A Workshop for Parents & Those Considering Parenting During Residency or Fellowship
February 19, 2025
These activities aim to raise healthcare professionals' awareness of burnout and present strategies for promoting resilience. These strategies will improve practitioner health and, ultimately, patient outcomes.
This session will discuss the joys and stresses of parenting in general, emphasizing topics specific to residents and fellows. These include managing competing demands on time, sharing responsibility with a partner or co-parent, physician stress, and identifying parenting values. It will emphasize positive parenting strategies and promote a child’s healthy emotional development. By fostering a better balance between personal and professional life, this session can help physicians reduce burnout, improve focus, and enhance overall well-being—leading to more compassionate patient care and better clinical decision-making. Content will be guided by participant engagement, discussion, and questions. This workshop is targeted largely toward parents of young children and those considering becoming a parent, but people at any stage of parenting are welcome.
Target Audience
This activity is designed for physicians and other healthcare professionals at the University of Chicago and its affiliates dedicated to improving resilience in themselves and others.
