Brief Summary

Health students are the future actors of the health system. They are exposed to many stressors in their journey. The quality of life of medical students is alarming worldwide: 11.1% of undergraduate and postgraduate residents reportedly have suicidal ideation and 27.2% have depressive symptoms. In addition, 44.2% suffer from burn-out syndrome. In the third cycle, 28.8% suffer from depressive symptoms and 35.1% from burn-out syndrome. This finding is shared internationally among medical residents. Health professionals are facing a global problem which it is crucial to act.

At national level, a survey on the mental health of young doctors carried out in 2017 found, among the 7603 residents who responded a prevalence: 22.8% of depressive symptoms, 59.7% of anxiety symptoms, 23.4% of suicidal thoughts, including 5.0% in the month prior to the survey. In 2018, a French report on the quality of life of health by Dr Donata Marra highlighted a real malaise affecting residents and the need to intervene "for residents, for carers and for patients", through the implementation of specific recommendations. The proposal 6 of the report emphasises the prevention of psychosocial risks through educational interventions such as training in collaborative management. On a personal level, the aim is to the leadership of each individual, in terms of stress management, communication, cross-disciplinary skills or even the introduction of relational simulations in the teaching of an awareness of deviant behaviour and harassment. The stress factors are indeed multiple during health studies confrontation with death, competition, increasing responsibilities… Perceived stress has a negative impact on the quality of life and burnout. Effective stress management strategies could therefore help to improve the quality of life of residents.

In this context, the analysis of the literature highlights three main areas of intervention that could contribute to resident leadership in favour of their quality of life: stress management, healthy living and the construction of a professional identity.

The Junior Leadership programme for residents from the beginning of their professional formation designed to provide basic knowledge and skills in healthcare leadership and to develop cross-disciplinary skills. The aim is to provide the necessary support for the success of the resident's professional project by participating in the improvement of their quality of life and the prevention of psycho-social risks.

The study therefore propose to evaluate the feasibility of training in leadership and meditation on the satisfaction of resident.
