Safety and Quality. Contribute to and comply with systems to protect patients As a medical student, you’ll learn about quality improvement and quality assurance, and will have the opportunity to take part in audits and reviews. You’ll also be in clinical settings during your studies and you must tell your supervisor when things go wrong and when these problems affect, or could affect, patient care. During your medical training, you may witness or be involved in something going wrong with a patient’s care, and you may be asked to contribute to an internal inquiry. Although LMS will normally be told about significant events, you should contact senior staff (for example, your year director or personal tutor) at an early stage, so they can arrange support for you. This will protect patients and allow the clinical team you are working with to respond appropriately. You must contribute honestly and openly to the process. Openness and honesty are key to being a good medical student and a safe and trustworthy doctor. You may hear this referred to as your professional duty of candour. Respond to risks to safety Patient safety is the responsibility of everyone working in a healthcare setting – including medical students on clinical placements. Patient safety does not just relate to the clinical treatment patients get – it also includes raising concerns when a patient’s dignity or comfort is compromised. You must: raise any concerns you have about patient safety, dignity or comfort promptly follow LMS policy on raising concerns, wherever possible. Protect patients and colleagues from any risks posed by your health You will have significant contact with patients while on clinical placements. Any health issues you have may affect them, as well as your fellow students and teachers. If you know or suspect that you have a condition that could be passed on to colleagues or patients, you must follow LMS guidance about this. As a medical student you’re likely to experience situations that will have an emotional impact on you. At times, you may experience stress and anxiety. This is completely normal and LMS will support you. You should be aware that some conditions that are usually minor – such as the common cold – may have a disproportionate impact on some patients, for example those with compromised immune systems. You need to bear this in mind when you decide whether to go to a placement if you are unwell. You must comply with LMS occupational health policies and procedures. You must eng...
