Student Needs and Assistance Program (SNAP)

Medical students are subject to the same illnesses as the general population. They may become impaired due to substance abuse or emotional difficulties and thus unable to perform their duties as a medical professional. While most individuals who experience personal difficulties seek out solutions or professional help on their own, there
are some who will not seek help even when it is in their own best interests and even though they may be endangering themselves and/or their patients. To handle such situations, Geisel School of Medicine has established the Student Needs and Assistance Program (SNAP), made up of a committee of students, faculty and staff. The purpose of this Committee is to handle problematic situations that arise with students and to organize educational programs around issues of impairment.
