#18 MedLife: Family and Medical Leave for Residents with Dr. Baniel and Dr. Masters
Tuesday, 20 June, 2023
In this insightful episode, we engage Drs. Baniel and Masters in a long overdue discussion on the ACGME's groundbreaking policies regarding family and medical leave during medical training. The conversation delves into the details and scenarios applicable to these changes by the ACGME's new guidelines. We explore the importance of prioritizing the well-being of medical trainees, emphasizing the need for adequate time off for personal and family-related matters. Through this candid conversation, Drs. Baniel and Masters shed light on the challenges faced by physicians in training in trying to obtain adequate time off for their health and family needs. We also discuss how the ACGME's policies aim to strike a balance between rigorous training and allowing residents and fellows to address personal responsibilities and take care of their own well-being. This follows last month's discussion with Dr. Anna Lee on the challenges female oncologists face when it comes to fertility and family planning.
