Medical Ethics: who can and cannot sleep with patients?

[QUOTE=bobkitty]
Hrm.. is that new? Because I can tick off at least four people who are violating that right now, and that’s just off the top of my head…

Well, that’s what I learned in training in 1994, so it’s been around since at least then.

Note that there’s ethical and then there’s legal. It’s not ethical. (that doens’t mean that a psychiatrist can’t get sued for it - and usually the malpractice carrier does NOT cover those damages)
