Annual Retreat for Medical Residents

​​​​Every year all residents and fellows at Marshfield Clinic / Marshfield Medical Center take off a full weekday to spend with the RWBC.

The retreat day is spent off site discussing topics of well-being in residency and career. Self-care activities are also presented and practiced. This is all done in a setting conducive to reflection, relaxation and relationship building. The retreat is a major commitment by DOE and the medical complex to your well-being as it means that the medical center operates for the day without any residents.
