Overview

Trainees experience high levels of stress and burnout during medical school and residency. This can exacerbate physical and mental health conditions. Particularly, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, and more (LGBTQIA+) people and other systemically marginalized and excluded people experience high levels of chronic illness and mental health concerns. Some transgender, non-binary, and/or gender expansive (TNG) people may undergo additional gender- affirming medical procedures that can be crucial to their physical and mental well being. Psychiatric trainees experience additional challenges in finding mental health care. This highly interactive dialogue and vignette based workshop will explore the challenges of adequately addressing the healthcare needs of minoritized psychiatry trainees in ways where those involved in working with trainees can walk away with better ways to assist trainees and trainees can find ways to navigate these systems.

Format

Recorded webinar, non-interactive, self-paced distance learning activity.

This presentation was recorded at the American Psychiatric Association Annual Meeting 2023.
