【 摘 要 】

Last year, I was one of two chief residents at a mid-sized Pediatric residency program. We both started out the academic year excited for the opportunity to bridge the gap between the residents and the faculty/administration. For our roles as educators and administrators – those responsibilities detailed in the “job description” – we felt well prepared. However, a surprising proportion of our time was spent trying to protect the well-being of our residents. It was through that effort that I was introduced to the concept of work–life balance.
