Tullamore (Ireland) (AFP) – Many young doctors in Ireland are leaving the country in search of better lifestyles. Skewed work-life balance, housing and cost of living crises are some of the issues young doctors face in Ireland. “A 40-hour week compared to an 80-hour week is hugely significant for having a life outside work,” said Niamh Humphries, a lecturer at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland who researches doctor emigration trends and motivations.
