They are about 3,000 to be deployed in France, especially in territories where there is a severe shortage of general practitioners. These junior doctors will carry out their last year of field studies in complete autonomy.
From this Monday, November 2, nearly 2,700 students in the final year of general medicine come to support the doctors installed, especially in the under-dense medical zone. A valuable but not necessarily lasting help, and still very insufficient to cover the health needs of the population.
About 80% of these students in the final year have been assigned to areas of great difficulty in accessing care, and will provide for one year of internship, consultation, care and follow-up of chronic diseases, while remaining under the responsibility of a trainee practitioner.
Three thousand "junior doctors" – first for whom the general medical boarding school goes from three to four years – arrive, starting this Monday, in the offices, houses and health centres for a year of internship. Formally intended to complete their training and encourage to settle in the medical deserts, the reform also serves to save on the health budget.
