It features Dr Louise Stone and experts’ consensus on this issue. It also features AMSA President Tish Sivagnanan: …“But a range of significant barriers exist that often prevent reporting, including the fact medicine is an environment with an innately hierarchical structure, where power is concentrated to senior medical staff who attract significant influence and control within the hospital system,” she said. “This combined with the meritocratic nature of medical training, where career advancement is often dependent on recommendations from supervisors, leaves those who are the targets of harassment fearful of educational and career repercussions if they were to report superiors.” OTHER AMSA Initiative and Representative Groups want YOU for 2024!
