Abstract:
The reform of medical residency introduced in 2017 established the position of Junior Doctor, for its last phase, called the consolidation phase. Its goal is the increasing and supervised autonomy of the resident, in order to better support the transition toward senior practitioner. It appears necessary to define proper guidelines on the status and the specific role of Junior Doctor in medical oncology, in order to help the implementation of the reform of the 3rd cycle. This document is the result of a collaboration between AERIO and CNEC, that respectively represent medical oncology residents and university teachers. It aims to advise and guide local practices, without being compulsory, before the arrival of the first Junior Doctors in November 2021. It explains the Junior Doctors' principal jobs: consultation, multidisciplinary meeting, day clinic, hospitalization, clinical research, quality policy and teaching.
