ABSTRACT
A question that society asks itself, mainly the medical, as a result of recent events in which a medical student her life in the most unjust way. However, she had warned of the threats she had had without there being a satisfactory answer. It is necessary to review the permanence of social service in medicine. There is an Official Mexican Standard, NOM-009-SSA3-2013. That establishes the criteria for the use of establishments for medical care as clinical fields for the provision of social service of medicine. The medical student in social service must feel safe, and not feel defenseless. When they do not receive the support that in theory he should receive from the health and education authorities that feeling of insecurity gets worse. Under no circumstances should the medical student be alone in a medical unit, without the supervision and advice of qualified doctors, ensuring their physical and psychological safety. Only then, the social service performed by the medical student has its reason for being. The medical student in social service is a student in training.REFERENCES
