Abstract: Objective To describe the impact of administrative penalties for medical disputes on the medical staff, including their perception on the penalty and its impact on their mind and body, professional behavior, career development, etc, and to provide a theoretical basis for health policy making and hospital management. Methods The phenomenological research method was adopted to conduct in-depth interview to 10 hospital staff in Taian who were involved in medical disputes and got punished, and the Giorgi qualitative data analysis was used in the research. Results The interviewees′perception and impacts of the punishment were concluded into five aspects:physiologically, psychologically, cognitively, behaviorally and professional development. Conclusions It is concluded that the current punishment to individuals has caused quite negative effects, and a new mechanism should be established to systematically reconstruct the procedure and reduce the medical disputes to the minimum.
