A tailored mindfulness-based program for resident physicians: A qualitative study.

Mindfulness-based programme for residents: study protocol of a randomised controlled trial.

Introduction: Residency is a stressful phase associated with high prevalence of mental distress. Besides impaired personal health, mental distress in residents has an impact on the quality of patient care and produces economic costs. Therefore, there is demand for interventions that improve resident physicians' mental health.
