MARQUES, Ana Margarida Dias  e  PEREIRA, Ana Lúcia Silva. Family medicine internship in a pandemic: what (com)promises?. Rev Port Med Geral Fam [online]. 2021, vol.37, n.4, pp.377-382.  Epub 31-Ago-2021. ISSN 2182-5173.  https://doi.org/10.32385/rpmgf.v37i4.13143.

The family medicine internship curriculum corresponds to a well-defined continuous medical training that in March 2020 was impaired in its structure due to the mobilization of intern doctors for unplanned areas of activity, but extremely important to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, there was a departure from the training curriculum, which although felt differently in different years of the internship, proved to be transversal to all, with a potential break in the guiding thread in the learning of family medicine. Nevertheless, the pandemic has become a driving force for the intern doctor to develop new skills, in areas to be explored, like the development of teamwork and communication skills, as well as the improvement of telephone consultation techniques. The internal-guiding binomial also became more cohesive, through joint learning in real-time, and there was a focus on clinical activity, to the detriment of curricular tasks. We suggest studies that continue to focus on the degree of motivation of intern physicians of family medicine, and how their new skills may constitute elements of individual valorization.
