A survey of 100 medical schools concerning training and preventive measures used to protect student health and safety found 60 percent felt students were adequately prepared to work safely; 11 percent did not. Over one-third planned to revise health and safety training. School adoption of policies, procedures, and uniform curriculum is recommended. (MSE)
