On the first episode of Ripples, we have a special guest for you! We are interviewing the Assistant Dean for Wellbeing for Graduate Medical Education at the Long School of Medicine, Dr. Jon Courand. We discuss the catalyst that turned Dr. Courand to wellness, how he brought his wellness interest to LSOM, the future of wellness at LSOM and his pebble “Be Present at Home.” Dr. Courand is a National ACGME Wellness Consortium founding and current member, executive committee member for the AAMC/CFAS Resilience Committee and Pediatric Hospitalist.
