摘要

Medical students face high burnout rates and struggle with difficult interpersonal encounters. Addressing this, an eight-week wellness elective was piloted. This prospective study (n = 34/45) evaluated its impact on wellness perceptions and behaviors using Kirkpatrick’s framework (levels 1–3) via pre-, post-, and one-month follow-up surveys. Completion rates were 76%, 38%, and 13%. All objectives improved significantly, after accounting for attrition rates (F = 13.32, p < 0.001). Wellness practices expanded from home-only to classroom (79%), social (71%), and clinical (21%) settings, with skills retained at follow-up. The elective enhanced stress management, suggesting early wellness education may protect against burnout.
