The field of medicine is quickly evolving, constantly demanding one that has high potential for professional burnout, to the detriment of practitioners and their patients. Though more and more attention has been drawn to decreasing empathy and associated impairment, it is rare for focus to be drawn to wellness promotion in medical students and residents. The fifth edition of Staying Human during Residency Training shines as a unique guide designed to prevent burnout.
- From The Foreword to the Fifth Edition by
Aliye Runyan, Medical Education Team Chair, AMSA and
Sonia Lazreg, MD, CIR Health Justice Fellow, AMSA
