#RiskTipTuesday: Professional boundaries preserve safety, ethics, and trust. Even “small” boundary crossings can become big risks.

Read our new blog on why boundaries matter and how to prevent misconduct: link.med-iq.com/oBUZJX

#HealthcareEthics #RiskManagement #PatientSafety
Title: Professional Sexual Misconduct in Healthcare: Why Boundaries Matter Subheader: Even one incident erodes trust, harms patients, and undermines the integrity of care. Misconduct happens more often than reported; in fact, only 5% to 10% of victims report sexual abuse by physicians. Seemingly minor “boundary crossings,” like unnecessary personal contact or extended visits, can create perception risks and ethical gray zones. Clear boundaries protect both patients and professionals. Maintaining boundaries isn’t about suspicion—it’s about protecting trust. • Time: Stick to standard clinic hours for appointments • Space: Ensure that visits take place in clinical settings, not public or personal venues • Communication: Keep interactions professional; avoid personal messaging or social media contact • Safety and Comfort: Adhere to chaperone policies for sensitive exams

A rare disease researcher says that Pharma's "patient advocacy" tends to be more show than substance.

Millions are spent on "glossy campaigns" that do little to help patients.
