"Bystander Intervention Training for Emergency Medicine Residents”

Mistreatment and harassment based on race, gender or sexual orientation is a pervasive problem in clinical training environments, including the emergency department. When asked about these incidents, physicians express discomfort when confronted with these situations. The goal of this project is to teach emergency medicine residents to perform bystander interventions when witnessing incidents of harassment or mistreatment.
