An online survey was undertaken to analyse the perception of medical school graduates, in postgraduate years 1 and 2, of being ready to work (preparedness) and of managing the demands of practice as a junior doctor on a general surgical attachment.An email-based survey was designed to assess medical school graduates' sense of preparedness, and was sent electronically to all house officers at the beginning of their 3-month attachment in general surgery between December 2020 and December 2021. One email reminder was sent 2 weeks after the initial email with the embedded survey hyperlink.The overall response rate was 50%. Of those, over 90% had accompanied surgical teams on acute calls and over extended hours as a medical student. However, only 50% had ever attended a trauma call or a resuscitation call with clinical teams. Half of the respondents indicated that they would have liked specific teaching on mental and physical self-care, preparation for night shifts and extended periods of duty as well as in prioritisation, delegation and management of workloads.This survey showed that new doctors lacked dedicated teaching in professional behaviours and felt it to be an important part of medical training and preparation for medical practice. |
