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.
Allan D. Peterkin, MD, provides hundreds of tips on how to cope with sleep deprivation, time pressures, and ethical and legal issues. This sixth edition is not only updated to reflect the latest research and resources, but also features new material on the latest issues in residency training, including social media use, patient-centred care, the medical humanities, and the “hidden curriculum” of residency. Presenting practical antidotes to cynicism, careerism, and burnout, Peterkin also offers guidance on fostering more empathic connection with patients and deepening relationships with colleagues, friends, and family.
Acknowledged by thousands of doctors across North America as an invaluable resource, Staying Human during Residency Training has helped to shape notions of trainee well-being for medical educators worldwide. Offering wise, compassionate, and professional counsel, this new edition again shows why it is required reading for medical students and new physicians pursuing postgraduate training.

(Aliye Runyan, Medical Education Team Chair, American Medical Student Association, and Sonia Lazreg, AMSA/Committee of Interns and Residents Health Justice Fellow)"An excellent resource for residents at any stage in their training."
(The Canadian Association of Internes and Residents)"This catalog of indispensable advice can help residents at all stages of training. Read it today, and pass it on!"
(Wayne M. Sotile, PhD, author of 'Letting Go of What's Holding You Back!' and 'The Resilient Physician')"Chock-full of all kinds of information that is pertinent, if not essential, to residents, including innumerable survival tips and suggestions. Dr Peterkin offers a penetrating and far-ranging, yet humane, perspective and has not lost sight of the "person within", in contrast to attitudes common in academic medical centres of today. This book will go a long way toward alleviating much of the worry and demoralization among contemporary residents, as well as their partners or spouses. A copy should be stuffed into the pocket of every resident physician."
