PY - 2021 T2 - Emotion in the Clinical Encounter AB - For clinicians to deal effectively with emotions—their patients’ and their own—it is critically important to preserve student and trainee wellness across the education continuum. Unfortunately, substantial evidence exists that, at least for physicians, this goal is not being met. This chapter will focus on the educational path for doctors-in-training, but many of the problems and challenges found in medical school and residency also likely exist in the educational paths for nurses and allied health professionals. In describing the problems, challenges, and potential solutions in this chapter, evidence will be drawn when possible from the medical education literature. When evidence is not available, I will base my assertions drawn from experience over the past several years of my career in which I have been invited to and visited more than 25 academic medical centers. The primary purpose of these visits was to give talks and workshops, but they allowed me, in committee meetings, in one-on-one conversations, at lunches and dinners, to hear from countless medical students, residents, and faculty about the challenges they faced in their professional and personal lives. Those conversations, and those that preceded them when I was Associate Dean for Curriculum at Saint Louis University School of Medicine, have informed and guided my work and I am immensely grateful to those who have shared so openly with me.
