An AMA national survey of junior doctors has exposed insufficient medical training resources and infrastructure in our public hospitals.

The AMA Junior Doctor Training, Education and Supervision Survey has collated the views of more than 900 junior doctors from across Australia on the quality of their medical training and the support they are receiving to become independent practitioners.

AMA President, Dr Andrew Pesce, said today that medical training in public hospitals is being held together by dedicated senior doctors who are giving their time and skills to junior doctors without the support of State Governments.

“This is another poor report card on the performance of our public hospitals,” Dr Pesce said.
