After this session, attendees should be able to:

1. Describe the assessment strategy to determine the current scope of student vulnerability to inappropriate healthcare exams or provider interactions.
2. List the essential elements for a comprehensive chaperone policy.
3. Describe the education materials intended to help staff carry out safe, appropriate sensitive examinations.

Program Abstract:
This is a critical time for evaluating policies and procedures around the sensitive physical exam in the college health setting. We will share our process and procedures developed after we systematically evaluated and addressed this topic with a review of patient complaints, revision of chaperoning policy for sensitive exams as well as creation of chaperoning guidelines and competencies for medical staff. We have also invested in a new patient complaint process and will review options.
