Feb. 15 symposium explores ecology of well-being

Maintaining well-being in the fast-paced clinical and academic environments is challenging. Building resilience is only a piece of the puzzle.

Mark your calendars to join guest speaker Nancy Nankivil of the American Medical Association on Feb. 15 as she and local experts work toward pragmatic and actionable solutions to address factors that affect our individual and organizational well-being.

Nankivil will discuss “The Ecology of Well-being in the Health Professions” during UNMC’s fourth annual Elevating the Conversation symposium, which is sponsored by the Chancellor’s Wellbeing Council. All UNMC, Nebraska Medicine and UNO faculty and staff are invited to attend the symposium at the Scott Conference Center, 6450 Pine St., from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Watch UNMC Today for details on registration and continuing education credit.

Nankivil will help the campus explore organizational factors that either hinder or build a culture of wellness, how these factors impact overall well-being, and what resources are available to promote systems change.
