The ultimate survival guide for medical students, interns, residents, and fellows, Staying Human during Residency Training provides time-tested advice and the latest information on every aspect of a resident's life

from choosing a residency program to coping with stress, enhancing self-care, and protecting personal and professional relationships.

The book features hundreds of tips on how to cope with sleep deprivation, time pressures, and ethical and legal issues. Updated to reflect the latest research and resources, the seventh edition provides new emphasis on virtual practice, gender, diversity, and accountability in the context of medical education.. It offers practical strategies learned from new technologies and new insight on the COVID-19 pandemic regarding public health, virtual appointment protocols, and AI developments.
