Issues of professionalism and professional identity formation, particularly amongst young doctors, have been the object of increasing attention. This is explained in part by the evolution of the hospital environment (specialization, shorter stays), as well as by the prevalence of physician burnout and suicide. In this context, the CHUV implemented a pilot project within the department of internal medicine aiming to support its residents in the construction of their professional identity. The Osler group convened 10 residents led by an attending physician and a senior resident from the internal medicine department as well as an attending physician of the liaison psychiatry department. The experience has been a success, with residents describing clear benefits of the group.
