Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Student Mental Health
  • Peer Support Programs

Background:

  • Medical students face significant burnout and barriers accessing mental health support.
  • Existing support services often present obstacles for students seeking help.
  • One-on-one peer support programs are understudied in medical education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development and implementation of the Side-by-Side Peer Support Program.
  • To assess the feasibility and effectiveness of peer support for medical students.
  • To identify barriers medical students face when seeking help.

Main Methods:

  • Thirty-five medical students trained as peer supporters.
  • Peer supporters provided basic counseling and referrals to professional services.
  • An electronic database recorded 303 student-peer interactions.
  • An end-of-year survey assessed barriers to seeking help.

Main Results:

  • Peer support interactions occurred via multiple formats (in-person, phone, text).
  • Students identified fewer barriers with the peer support program compared to formal services.
  • Key barriers reduced: fear of career impact (2.5% vs 22.2%) and belief services are unhelpful (23.5% vs 42.0%).

Conclusions:

  • The Side-by-Side program offers a feasible and effective peer support model for medical students.
  • Peer support may mitigate common barriers to accessing mental health services in medical education.
  • Future research should evaluate well-being metrics and impact on professional help-seeking behaviors.
