Malaysian Medics International (MMI) first launched Cure the Culture in July 2018, when the head of the orthopaedics department at a hospital in Klang Valley was reported to sexually harass housemen for years.
It has been three years since the incident, but clinical workplace toxic culture remains. Therefore, MMI, as a representative body for Malaysian medical students and junior doctors, decided it's time to launch Cure the Culture 2.0.
Doctors deserve to work in a positive environment that values respectful communication, teamwork, and support. There have been surveys carried out amongst doctors which demonstrate the severity of this phenomenon. However, MMI believes this issue needs to gain more traction and awareness within the community. Join us in understanding just how far this issue extends within the doctors' community and let us all stand up for a better future for doctors!
