As a doctor in training (DiT) or career medical
officer, you represent the future of the profession
and are a leader of tomorrow. AMA Victoria
is here to help you excel and realise your
professional potential – whatever your
chosen pathway. The DiT subdivision meets
online on the second Wednesday of every month
at 7pm. A Zoom link is sent to all DITs
who are AMA members.
AMA VICTORIA
—
“We’re trying to enrich the sense of
community amongst the doctor in training
subdivision. And part of that is creating
some face-to-face meetings. In July we
had our first face-to-face meeting since
Covid at the London Tavern in Richmond,
which was great fun.”
An in-person meeting at AMA House
in October focused on the EBA, and was
open to all doctors in training, whether
they're AMA members or not. With over
30 attendees, there were rich discussions
ranging from increasing junior doctor
pay, to incentivising working in rural and
regional areas, to improving parental leave
entitlements. There are further online EBA
meetings planned over the coming months.
“We're trying to involve as many doctors in
training as possible, so we can hear directly
from them what they want and need,
and how we can make the workplace
a supportive and enriching environment.”
