Intern nurse at Shanxi hospital reportedly posted patient’s intimate photos online

疑山西一医院实习护士晒患者隐私照

A social media post showing what appears to be an intern nurse at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University sharing unblurred photos from an obstetric surgery, including a patient’s private parts, sparked online outrage. The hospital acknowledged the incident but had not issued a formal response by press time. The nurse’s work badge indicated she had been in the department for less than two months.

The view from inside

The story is framed as a violation of medical ethics and professional conduct, with comments emphasizing “医德” (medical ethics) and “医风” (medical professionalism).
