What is the WellBeing Series?
The MyWellbeing Department is committed to providing engaging opportunities to build self-awareness, wellbeing, and resilience. Increasing our understanding of the impact of wellbeing on both our home and work lives leads to the exploration of how to best find wholeness. Topics will be introduced and then participants will be encouraged to engage the topics in ways that bring meaning to them.
What are Schwartz Rounds?
The UTMB Galveston Campus is a new member of “The Schwartz Center for Compassionate Healthcare." Schwartz Rounds provide a space where individuals from all facets of the UTMB Health organization are invited to share experiences, learn from each other and focus on the human dimension of medicine and patient care where ALL staff, employees, and students are invited to participate.
