[Specialist training situation in rheumatology from a  trainer's perspective].

This article focuses on the training situation of rheumatologists from the perspective of trainers regarding the existing and potentially increasing deficits of specialists for internal medicine and rheumatology. According to the new regulations defining the rheumatologist training, a substantial part of the training schedule is required to be completed in a hospital setting in order to become a specialist rheumatologist. In this context, the increased training capacity necessitates additional hospital training positions. In addition, the rheumatology residents desire a structured training program. Significantly, the work-life balance is an important factor to make working as a specialist for internal medicine and rheumatology more attractive. PMID: 33231737 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
