RCSEd Wellbeing Week
During challenging times for us all, the RCSEd Trainees' Committee is encouraging surgical and dental teams to take a few moments to focus on each other. Maintaining wellbeing is vital to enable the provision of optimal patient care. Wellbeing Week 2023 will be held from 22-26 May with both online and in person events taking place.
Themes that are being explored for this years Wellbeing Week include: Neurodiversity, The Art of Making a Mistake, Parenting as a Doctor and ‘Outside of the 9 to 5’.
