Burnout is extending into students of an honorable career. We cannot continue to have discourse without any action. EMR may be a part but also “on call” is a neglected component; people need to turn off once they leave the work place for the day. In a today’s world, I see no reason we cannot shift specialties to virtual call or even specialty Hospitalist based work, particularly in hospital employed practices, to continue to maintain a healthy workforce.

Relationship and Intimacy Coach for educated, successful professionals ✱ keynote speaker ✱ workshop facilitator ✱ bestselling author "Uncompromising Intimacy" ✱ host "The Intimate Marriage Podcast"
When Rodd and I were getting to know one another in our first semester of medical school, we spent A LOT of time together. It wasn’t particularly romantic–it was sitting next to one another in lecture halls, maybe having lunch together in between, and studying near one another. In other words, our relationship was completely intertwined with our medical education. I quickly learned that Rodd is a genius test taker. He will score two standard deviations from the mean even when he knows nothing about the test’s content. He’s just really, really good at answering multiple choice questions accurately. I, on the other hand, am not. I mean, I’m good enough to have become a licensed physician, but I had a learning curve when it came to studying medical textbooks and preparing for exams. And, I was concerned about what my new boyfriend would think of me when he saw the gap in our scores. One of our classmates was married to a brilliant woman at another medical school. He often said to us in a variety of contexts, “don’t compare.” He knew how important it was to remain clear about each person’s human value in a relationship and not get caught in comparing test results. He was right, of course. He was right about not comparing test scores. He was right about not comparing when it came to how much time I got to spend with our new daughter when I arranged for lighter rotations and my husband was sleep-deprived all the time. He was right about not comparing how often we saw our parents, or how many friends each of us have, or how much money either of us is making. It’s also been extremely important to keep this in mind when it comes to personal growth. There have been very, very few times when we have been neck-in-neck, growing at the same rate. Far more often I might discover a training, or a book, or find a teacher…and I’ll go all in. Inevitably, I find it frustrating that he’s lagging, holding me back, unable to keep up with my personal growth and expansive mindset. Then, all of a sudden, it will feel like Rodd has leap-frogged over me and I find myself unexpectedly “behind,” feeling confronted by our reversed positions. Sometimes one of us is the tortoise, and the other the hare. Other times it’s reversed. I’m sharing this because I have heard from countless frustrated spouses, yearning for their partners to “do the work” and meet them where they are. This is a real phenomenon. However, invariably, there’s a lot of hidden wisdom in that partner who’s behind. With patience, coaxing, and a wholehearted approach, that partner can blow your mind with their perceptions and articulation of truth. And you realize all that comparison never served you–it just created frustration, disappointment, and disconnection. If you want your partner to grow more, look at how you can soften, or lead, become a safer presence for whatever is keeping them captive in their own internal environment. And whatever you do, “don’t compare.” It isn’t helpful.

“We try to make small talk—unable to articulate our feelings, but knowing that what we just saw and experienced was not normal. Although medicine would have us believe that it is normal—in this setting, at least." What goes through a medical student’s mind after experiencing the loss of a life in the ER for the first time? Einstein M.D. student Darnell K. Adrian Williams Jr. shares what he saw, felt, and thought in this blog post. #MedEd #medschool #medschoollife #becomingaphysician #firstyearmedschool #firstyearmedstudent #becomingadoctor #MD
