MDU podcasts on medico-legal subjects
Dealing with the media
Medicine is one of the few professions where the consequences of a mistake may be publicised in the newspapers. In this podcast, Dr Helen Burnell, an MDU medico-legal adviser, provides advice for members who find themselves in the media spotlight.
Confidentiality and the police
In general, the police have no more right to confidential information about a patient than anyone else but there are times when doctors should disclose details. Dr Sally Old, MDU medico-legal adviser, looks at a number of different situations that can occur.
