RESUMO
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in periods of remote working for some junior doctors, due to shielding and clinical vulnerability. This report offers practical guidance for junior doctors and their supervisors on how to make a period of remote working safe and effective, while maintaining education, training progression and morale. We outline specific challenges and practicalities that should be considered prior to commencing remote working and discuss what tasks and activities are best suited to a remote-working junior doctor. We offer a positive outlook that, with adequate support, a junior doctor can continue to progress in their training while working remotely, and can make a period of remote working an opportunity for personal and professional development while remaining an effective and valuable member of the clinical team.
