Medical Models
Bastyr University requires the use of paid professional medical models, or standardized patients, for all clinical skills training and practice sessions that involve the genitals, rectum or breasts. Students are prohibited from conducting such exams or procedures on other Bastyr University students. In addition, a licensed practitioner is required to remain in the room while students conduct such exams or procedures.
The hiring of medical models is coordinated through the school/department program supervisor/coordinator.
If a student is unable to attend practice/training session with the provided medical model/standardized patient, the student will be responsible for contacting the department to reschedule time and model/standardized patient which will be paid by the student.
