My Boundary Alarm Keeps Going Off!
Harvard Medical School
Teaching Professional Boundaries to Medical Students and Residents
The Harvard Macy Team produced a series of 10 brief "trigger tapes" depicting commonly encountered boundary challenging situations. The scenarios, which have been produced in DVD format, provide a rich opportunity for case exploration and role play. The trigger tape scenarios have been successfully used for both self-study and in workshop format by students, residents, and faculty. For additional information, contact Harvard Team Leader Elizabeth Gaufberg, MD, MPH.
