What Is Wellness and Why Is It So Important in Our Workplace?

In the Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine here at UMMC, the wellness workforce group is committed to promote and improve the well-being of faculty and staff by providing education, support, and services. Our goal is for all UMMC anesthesiology staff to be engaged in healthy habits and feel supported and positive about their work-life balance.

2021-2022 Anesthesiology Residency and Fellowship Matches

We are thrilled to have successfully matched eight incoming PGY-1 interns, two PGY-2/CA-1s, and fellows for the pediatric, pain, and cardiac fellowships. They will all be starting in our department in July!

Departmental Scholarly Activity

As a part of the only academic medical center in the state of Mississippi, our department works tirelessly in the area of anesthesiology research. We have strong resident, nurse anesthetist, and faculty participation on the state and national level at numerous academic meetings and conferences every year. We would like to recognize and thank our physician scientists who have published research, case reports, and book chapters in 2020.

Congratulations!

Our department is full of wonderful and engaging faculty, staff, and trainees who are being recognized on campus, in our community, and at the national level for their outstanding work and character. Beginning with this issue, we will recognize awards and achievements of everyone in the department in every newsletter.
