JAKARTA - The Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia (Menkes), Budi Gunadi, discussed cases of sexual violence that occurred in the realm of medical personnel. As is known, some time ago there was a viral rape case committed by an anesthetician doctor at Hasan Sadikin Hospital (RSHS) Bandung.
In this case, Budi Gunadi said that serious handling must be taken. Concrete regulations must be made for the education of specialist doctors, in order to prevent the same case from happening again in the future.
"There must be serious, systematic and concrete improvements for the education of specialist doctors," said Budi Gunadi at a press conference on the Handling of Cases of Ethical Violation and Medical Personnel Discipline, quoted from the Indonesian Ministry of Health's YouTube, on Monday, April 21, 2025.
One of the efforts made by the Ministry of Health is to require prospective specialist doctors to do psychological tests. This policy was carried out to prevent any cases related to mental health problems carried out by the resident doctor.
"When the recruitment of prospective specialist doctor participants, it is required to do a psychological test so that we can find out the mental condition of the person concerned to be able to carry out this education, and later will be able to serve the community as well as possible," he said.
The psychological test is requested to be carried out regularly by specialist doctor program participants. This test will be carried out every six months.
"We want to make sure that every six months a psychological screening must be carried out so that his mental condition can be monitored," he added.
