A significant number of resident doctors in Romania express a need for additional training in patient communication, particularly in pediatrics and oncology. A national study reveals that 60% of participants feel they require further education to enhance their communication skills. The demand for training increases with clinical experience, especially among those in their fifth and sixth years of residency. Despite 63% rating their current communication abilities positively, only a small fraction believe their skills are highly developed. The Romanian College of Physicians advocates for the introduction of applied communication modules in residency training to improve medical practice quality and reduce communication-related conflicts.
