Wellbeing
The Wellbeing Champion Award is an award created by PMCV and JMO Victoria.
It was created in the midst of COVID19 as an avenue to cultivate a culture of POSITIVITY, GRATITUDE and SUPPORT for junior doctors across Victoria. The Wellbeing Champion Award will be presented to an intern, resident and registrar who have made contributions to the wellbeing of their colleagues. Feel free to venture outside of the criteria box and nominate anyone you believe deserves recognition for their efforts and kindness.
Initiated in 2020 under ‘Wellbeing and Emotional Support for JMOs during COVID19’ project
Team Members: Manisha Koppa, Rachel Cheong, Brad Wittmer, Jennifer Nguyen, Christina Guo, Tessa Low, Hezekiah Stratton
Values:
- Create a safe environment for doctors to speak up about their emotions
