Vendor Interaction Policy. Resident behavior and professional judgment should not be compromised by vendor influence, either through vendor interactions with the training program or the individual resident. Residents are professionally accountable to their patients and colleagues, and as such should avoid interactions with vendor representatives that have the appearance of compromising impartiality in clinical or academic practices. The SJMC GMEC has outlined a Vender Interaction Policy which must be reviewed by residents and accepted, in writing, prior to initiation of training.

U. Well-Being Policy: Well-being of residents and faculty members is a key element of a positive learning and working environment. Each program, in partnership with the UWSOM, has the responsibility to address clinicians’ psychological, emotional, and physical well-being, and all members of the health care team share responsibility for the well-being of others. The UWSOM and each program must offer appropriate infrastructure, services, resources, and leave from training when needed. The benefit program outlined below is designed for Residents (Job Profile 10328), Fellows (Job Profile 10439), and Chief Residents (Job Profile 10329) paid by the University of Washington and is administered through the UWSOM/UWSOD. Some of these benefits, including but not limited to the UW Retirement Plan (UWRP), may not apply to residents who hold a title of Senior Fellow Trainee (Job Profile 10442) and receive stipends from training grants. UWSOM also provides a number of benefits that are unique to residents, which are included below under Other Resident Resources and Services. Policies related to these benefits are subject to change during the academic year. In the event of a change in benefits policy, the GME Office will notify residents. More information about each of these benefits may be found on the GME website or by contacting the GME Office. Residents may also contact UW Human Resources at (000) 000-0000 for questions regarding UW benefits. Residents required by their program to participate in in-house overnight call or to perform other duties related to their residency program past midnight on their last night of service will receive pay and all benefits (including health insurance, professional liability coverage and workers’ compensation) for hours worked past the end date of their appointment agreement. Programs must notify the GME Office of such extensions by March 30 of each academic year.
