  • Medical Education
  • Student Well-being
  • Clinical Training

Context:

  • Medical students encounter intimidating and potentially harassing situations during early clinical experiences.
  • Sexual harassment, particularly from patients (especially psychiatric patients), presents unique challenges in prevention.
  • Incidents involving staff or supervisors require stringent prevention and intervention protocols.

Purpose:

  • To highlight the prevalence of intimidating and harassing situations faced by medical students in clinical settings.
  • To emphasize the need for preparedness and awareness among students regarding such incidents.
  • To advocate for the creation of secure environments within University Medical Centres for students to discuss these experiences.

Summary:

  • Medical students are vulnerable to intimidation and sexual harassment in clinical settings, as evidenced by studies at Nijmegen Medical School.
