Peter Eidenberg Shares Strategies to Prevent Sexual Misconduct in Health Care Settings
Peter Eidenberg was recently the featured speaker as part of Physicians Insurance’s Risk Factors series. The presentation was via live webcast to hundreds of providers and risk managers throughout the Pacific Northwest. Peter’s presentation, titled Protecting Patients and Providers: Strategies for Preventing Sexual Misconduct, provided an engaging discussion on the issue of provider sexual misconduct. During the presentation, Peter shared from his experiences defending providers accused of impropriety by patients and offered recommendations on how to avoid interactions that may leave a patient feeling uncomfortable or confused with their care and treatment. He also provided recommendations on ways to reduce the risk of providers blurring boundaries with their patients and how to respond to patient complaints of sexual misconduct. The informative, hour-long presentation was one the most well-attended of the Risk Factors series.
