Obstetrics and Gynecology Residents' Perspectives on Obtaining Out-of-state Abortion Skills Training Post-Dobbs: A Qualitative Study
OB/GYN residents' worries about their clinical competence given training constraints raise concerns about the ability of the future OB/GYN workforce to provide high-quality abortion care, particularly for patients already facing critical health disparities. The challenges they described suggest that residents seeking OSAST could benefit from additional support to streamline administrative processes and ease the process of temporary relocation.
