Violencia Feminicida en Médicas Pasantes de Servicio Social.

More than half of medical interns do not feel safe in Health Centers (HS), since there are records of violence mainly towards social service female medical interns (SSFMI) in HS. The objective of the study was to identify the type of violence exercised in a sample of 60 women between 22 and 24 years old. The survey helped to identify four risk situations: insecurity (30%), life in danger (50%), attempted break-in (20%) and attempted sexual harassment (30%). Results also show six different types of violence: psychological (42.17 ± 11.54), physical (94.86 ± 7.07), economic (83.45 ± 5.24), sexual (27.38 ± 3.53), work (53.13 ± 36.05) and educational (43.77 ± 23.49). Violent assaults are evident in the SSFMI, suggesting that the HS do not have appropriate security measures to protect the safety of the SSFMI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
