Creativity is a concept that is often considered too broad, too vague and too nuanced to incorporate into the structured world of residency. But can exploring the world of the abstract help us to become more astute, caring and well-rounded physicians? Dr.Rossi, PGY4 at Cooper University Hospital, discusses his experience with exploring various avenues of creative expression, including advocacy and social media outreach. We discuss what it means to build influence during these uncertain times and how one can leverage creativity to create more agency in a designated speciality.
In this episode we discuss the following:
- What does creativity mean and how can it manifest within the confines of residency?
- What types of outlets should trainees get involved with to further develop their creative interests?
- What are the setbacks of such exposure during training and how can trainees avoid such pitfalls?
- What kinds of advocacy should residents and fellow engage in to have more agency in how they practice?
- How can we work to ensure that such outlets are encouraged during training?
