Being A Trainee: How Your Health Affects Your Practice
Starting a career in medicine comes with extraordinary challenges—and the need for support has never been clearer. In this new video, Megan Curry, LCSW, CPHP Clinician and Clinical Program Liaison to Colorado’s contracted Training Programs, shares a powerful message for medical trainees: prioritizing your health is an act of professionalism. Untreated stress, anxiety, or burnout can impact your learning and, ultimately, patient care. This video encourages trainees to take action early—and reminds them they’re never alone.

What the Medical Community is Saying About CPHP
“CPHP continues to play an important role at our hospital when physician health issues surface. I must say specifically that CPHP has helped with a variety of questionable health issues, known health issues, physician stress and anxiety, substance abuse, behavioral concerns, boundary issues, work/family balance, personal and family stressors and personal loss. We are also grateful to CPHP as they have provided general education regarding stress in the workplace, how to identify possible substance abuse, and the multitude of services provided which have been most helpful to our physicians.”
“To other medical students who are fearful or uncertain about contacting CPHP: It takes strength and bravery, but I can attest that it will pay off. I understand that it’s not pleasant to make this kind of call, but it may be the most important call of your career.”
