NBMS Wellness provides support to physicians and their families, medical residents, and medical students who may be coping with the demands of practice, relationships, addiction, and other mental health or life challenges. We are here to support physicians and medical learners in protecting their resiliency and finding the joy in medicine and in life.
The Fitness to Practice Program, distinctly different from the Wellness Program, investigates and supports medical practitioner fitness to practice issues using a Safe Haven approach. Physicians can self-refer to the program (recommended) or can be referred by a colleague, employer, family member or CPSNB.
