Non medical chaperones

I had an ex girlfriend that worked in a large medical clinic. This clinic had contracts to provide non life threatening medical care for the city, police, fire dept, mines, and dozens of companies throughout the city and county. They handled minor injuries, drug testing and did tons of physicals. Police and fire had to have annual physicals. The clinic had four doctors. Two male and two female. Most of the police, fire fighters, and miners were men. So the two female doctors ended up with a lot of the male patients. The clinic had a registered nurse and phlebotomist, but they didn't like tying them up doing chaperoning. So my girlfriend and another female, who both worked the front desk, would take turns chaperoning when one of the female doctors had a male patient that was having a genital exam or a prostate exam. Each would usually chaperone several times a day. She loved every minute of it. She would come home and tell me about her experiences. The cute fireman who had the nicest butt. The guy who was very well hung. She got to see hundreds of naked guys being examined. And she had no medical experience at all. I had this happen to me one time. What are your experiences with chaperones? Have you ever ended up with a non medical person chaperoning?

So basically she was also playing the voyeur?

Pretty good gig if that's your kink, which it sounds it was in her case ...ha ha.

Now here's a hypothetical: what if the genders were switched? Two guys from the front desk with no medical experience being called in to chaperone when ladies were getting intimate exams? I wonder what patients would think about that?

There is no way that this would ever be allowed. Women wouldn't allow it. Us men are expected to act like a man and keep our mouths shut. And most of us do when faced with something like this.

@agracier It would definitely be something that I would enjoy. I love watching real female exams, especially when the patient is reluctant and embarrassed. I highly doubt, however, that this would be allowed. There is still a double standard when it comes to nudity in a medical situation. The only way that this would be possible is in an emergency room setting where privacy isn't as much of a concern.

I wonder about it.

Ideally a chaperone would need to distinguish what is a normal medical gesture and what is not, thus be medical staff.

On the other hand, there have been instances of abuse by physicians where the nurses were complicit. Somebody more external would have perhaps said things were abnormal.

So to really keep everyone in check, there would ideally, need to be quite a number of people involved, including medically trained chaperones to watch over the 'regular' chaperones ... logically, if unrealistically, this would then entail whole chaperone committees being needed ... don't see it happening of course, but this is what suspicious thinking about medical visits, if taken to logical extremes, might look like ...

During my childhood a chaperone, (when I actually had a chaperone present) doctors, nurses, etc were all strangers to me. I lived through some awful experiences.

In adulthood, this is simply impossible. Since only the patient decides whether to undress him at all. Another thing is childhood. Nobody will ask you about your desires. I was given enemas more than once in the presence of other mothers and even children when I was 6 years old. And at the age of 10, it was not unusual for me to be naked or half-naked in front of other adult women while waiting for some doctor's prescriptions. Also, from the ward to the examination room, I was always accompanied by a junior nurse. They were first or second year medical school students. Many were not even 18 years old. They were only supposed to walk me to the office and wait at the door. But in fact, they were always in the office and were present at all exams.

I have had non medical chaperones a couple of times and even though doctors and nurses use CNAs or medical assistants I don’t really consider them “medical” since all they do is stand there and watch.

I had a urological procedure once and the doctor used his wife that was apparently Jack of all trades including receptionist. She just came in with him and assisted with the procedure. I never went back to that doctor as I didn’t feel it was appropriate. I also once went to a public clinic because I didn’t have insurance and the nurse practitioner brought in someone from “the office” since there was no one else available to chaperone the genital exam but it was all required for a state hospital job.

Although "Non-medical" chaperones may be trained to do an appropriate job, that was obviously NOT the case here. One of the first rules would be patient privacy and keeping her mouth shut outside of the office.

My opinion, the only non medical chaperones should be family or close friends requested by the patient.

A non medical chaperone would be one of the office girls who likes looking at naked men. That's why this fat old man with a little wrinkly one never gets one.

How long did she work there? She probably shouldn't have been telling any details of what she saw while chaperoning, even if she was enjoying it. I'm curious about what the patients thought of having a non-medical chaperone present and witnessing everything.

I've only once had a nurse stand in during a physical, and I wasn't offered a choice. She was the same nurse that took me to the exam room, had me undress and took my vitals before the doctor arrived. She left but then returned with the doctor, who was also female, and stayed for the entirety. She did do more than just watch though. She had the clipboard with the medical form that she would write stuff on as the physical proceeded. It was a small room and she did get to see everything. Having extra eyes on me was awkward enough, even if they were medical professionals. Having someone in there from the front desk in their street clothes just watching and checking me out, not knowing what they are thinking, would be really humiliating, albeit, somewhat enticing to reflect on.

Chaperons are to protect the doctor from sexual misconduct charges not to protect the patient. Brought in by the doctor and employed by the doctor. View chaperons from that viewpoint.

I have been examined twice by female providers and neither time had a chaperone present whether a nurse or a receptionist. I guess the idea of a chaperone doesn't bother me. But if the provider can't or doesn't trust me then maybe another provider should be conducting the exam. The whole concept of being given a good thorough examination is about doctor/patient trust and honesty.

There is a sign on the wall at the clinic I go to stating if you wish for a chaperone to be present during your exam you need to ask for one. Otherwise one will not be provided during your exam.

If I were young and fit again, a non-medical chaperone ( attractive woman ) would be welcome to check out my naked ass all she wanted.

In the past on other boards ( and possibly this one as well ), I've read numerous stories about teenage boys being chaperoned by a female teacher or administrator while waiting in line for their turn to see the doctor or nurse. Some of the lads relished the chance to show themselves, others hated it, some were neutral. The women involved varied in their responses, based on their age. While the younger ones often clearly enjoyed the show, the older ones often seemed like they couldn't care less.

That's ANOTHER memory that I never got to experience during my formative years. My young life was fucking DULL.

I may have written about this in the past, but it's such a fond memory...

I went for a derm appointment to a small office that had one female doctor. When I came in there was a really cute young woman at the front desk who checked me in. There was no one else in the waiting room so we chatted little. She was a college student who had just started working there part time.

A nurse took me into the room and I changed into a gown. The doctor came in alone and checked me over. When I mentioned that I had a rash of some sort around my genitals she explained that she would have the nurse step in to chaperone that part of the exam. She was gone for longer than I thought she would be and when she returned she told me that the nurse had stepped out for lunch and would I mind if her receptionist chaperoned.

I did not mind. Next thing I knew the young lady from the front desk was standing next to the doctor as the doctor asked me to remove my gown and show her the problem. It was a rather unusual moment as I stood there in front of them and was examined. It was even more interesting when I had to check out with the same receptionist after the exam was over.
