Advancing Medical Professionalism

The pressures and identity crisis afflicting medical professionals are competing with the vocational ideals that led many into the profession. So, how do we prepare and educate students and junior doctors for the realities of modern medicine? And how do we support doctors to improve their practice and maintain professional satisfaction throughout their careers? Advancing Medical Professionalism, a new report from Oxford Healthcare Values Partnership (OHVP) and the Royal College of Physicians argues that supporting doctors to develop their professional identities - as healers, patient partners, team workers, managers and leaders, learners and teachers, advocates, and innovators - can be part of the answer. And that this will also help us address healthcare challenges such as the recruitment and retention of doctors, improving patient care, and managing increasingly complex health systems.
