Restore the Healer
in You

The Nevada Physician Wellness Coalition (NPWC) is an independent, autonomous, non-profit organization, founded by physicians for physicians.

 Our organization is committed to addressing the devastation and negative community impact of physician burnout and suicide.

The NPWC is built upon four key pillars that are based on the specific needs of physicians.

 

Safety & Trust

Safety & trust are our top priorities. We create spaces that are emotionally & psychologically safe for physicians to engage in.

 

Connection & Community

Our spaces facilitate meaningful connections between physicians; these connections contribute to destigmatizing burnout and stress, build a sense of community and belonging, and contribute to overall wellness.

Evidence-Based Tools

We utilize evidence-based tools that create change; we are committed to moving the needle on physician burnout and suicide.

 

Independence

In order to cultivate psychological safety where physicians can share freely, NPWC is committed to remaining an independent entity that does not have affiliation with any particular hospital systems, boards, or governing bodies.

Our Impact

  • "NPWC sessions have been very valuable in helping me feel supported by my colleagues and the clinician community at large. By providing education about burnout and creating a safe space to discuss our experiences we were able to reflect, process and support each other in addressing burnout. I am so grateful for the programs being offered and recommend anyone who has the opportunity to participate!"

    Sam Smith, PA-C

  • "The NPWC Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction program for physicians gave me the motivation and tools to be more consistent and find greater fulfillment with my meditation. The timing was fortuitous as shortly after the program completed, my life was upended with a wildfire evacuation of our entire city. I was able to continue with my meditation practice during the evacuation."

  • "The Enhancing Humanism in Medicine sessions are a great opportunity to discuss with colleagues the challenges and joys of practicing medicine. We get so little time to reflect on what we do and these sessions allow this to happen in a safe and respectful forum."
