As the word “resident” implies, doctors at this stage may find
themselves practically living at the hospital. Depending on the
specialty and where one is in the world, during residency a doctor
may be expected to work anywhere from 50-80 hours a week. The
toll of this is often noticeable when it comes to health in general,
and mental health in particular. Anxiety, depression
and insomnia, are just a few of the side effects related to burnout.
While work-life balance in the context of residency may sound
paradoxical, to survive this period choices do have to be made.
What kind of sacrifices will be necessary? What kind of time
management strategies might come in handy, and what insight
can be gleaned from those who have gone through it? We have
gathered a panel of expert doctors who will discuss these very
topics in the next session of our Resilient Resident Series.
