The RFF has the opportunity to bridge a communication gap between trainees, faculty and the global institution at Upstate University Hospital. We can connect trainees to leadership opportunities around the institution. We have a unique position to give all trainees an avenue to voice issues and concerns they or their peers may be facing to create a better and safer work environment at Upstate. This is my hope for the RFF and we have already begun making strides toward these endeavors.

Residency and fellowship training is a challenging period of our career. We can take care of patients only when we are able to take care of ourselves. Creating a culture where trainees feel valued by their colleagues, faculty and the hospital administration helps maintain their well-being. I believe Residents and Fellows Forum can serve as a platform for our concerns and help us make our work environment better.
