Description
Creating a Human Trafficking Victim Medical Safe Haven in Resident Physician Education: A Synergistic Dynamic of Care presents a solution for providing the long-term medical care essential for human trafficking victim and survivor recovery. A logistical framework, best practices and training curriculum will be presented based on a highly successful medical safe haven incorporated into Dignity Health’s family medicine residency clinic. The program presents a viable, low-utilization construct for providing widespread survivor-led, victim-centered, trauma-informed medical care to human trafficking victims and survivors while concurrently training the future physician workforce to recognize and appropriately treat this vulnerable patient population. The presenter is Ron Chambers, MD, FAAFP, Program Director of the Dignity Health Methodist Family Medicine Residency Program and Medical Director for the Mercy Human Trafficking Clinic.
