Medical intern shares personal health experience

Jade Dieudonné, a sixth-year medical intern at the faculty of Tours, is sharing a unique perspective in "Le Quotidien," a publication where interns and future interns reflect on their first-time experiences in healthcare. This month, she discusses facing her own illness, an experience that differs from the typical exposure to illness that most medical professionals accumulate over time.

Format highlights personal and professional growth

In "Le Quotidien," each issue features a first-time experience from an intern or future intern, paired with insights from a senior medical professional who has encountered similar situations. This format aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world practice by highlighting both personal challenges and professional lessons.

Focus on facing one's own illness

Jade's story centers on her personal experience with illness, a situation that contrasts with the usual exposure to patient health issues that medical professionals encounter. Her experience is being discussed alongside reflections from Dr. Jean Thévenot, a senior physician who provides guidance based on his own encounters with similar challenges.
