Beginning in 2014, the Evidence Based Practice Council of the University of Utah Hospitals and Clinics (UUHC) has sponsored a poster fair that encourages employees and students to share projects and research initiatives.  This poster fair is open to any University of Utah Healthcare employee who has led a quality improvement effort in their department and wants to share their story.

Wellness Champions across departments and divisions of University of Utah Health act as change agents by identifying needs within their group. They are assisted in implementing a practical and evidence-based intervention to improve health and wellness, while measuring the outcome of their efforts. As we work to expand this program to faculty and staff across U of U Health, this will be an opportunity to see what has been done thus far. The fair was originally known as the “Resiliency Poster Fair” and renamed to the “Wellness Champion Poster Fair” in 2018. Co-sponsored by the Resiliency Center, Accelerate, and the Spencer S. Eccles Health Sciences Library.
