Ep. 14: Parental Leave During Training & Its Consequences
from Dr. Mama Podcast Hosted by Dr. Mama Podcast
Hello one and all to episode 14. In a slight deviation from our usual format we take a deep dive into parental leave practices during medical training with Dr. Rebeca Ortiz Worthington. We use Rebeca's article in Academic Medicine as a launching pad from which to explore how childbearing during training affects the medical trainees choosing to parent and the wider medical community. You can read the article co-authored by Rebeca, Lauren D Feld & Anna Volerman here: "Supporting New Physicians and New Parents: A Call to Create a Standard Parental Leave Policy for Residents" As always, please help spread the word about this podcast with friends you feel may be interested.
