Tuesday, 25 March 2025, 17:00-19:00 CET (16:45 casual welcome session)
Research shows that patient participation in education can improve empathy, communication skills, it can lead to better care and higher patient satisfaction and enhances learning. However, it can be difficult to think of ways in which patients can participate in education.
In this seminar, we will talk about learning from (and with) patients. First, we will reflect on our own experiences with illness and healthcare. Then, we will share what is already happening in our educational institutes when it comes to patient participation in teaching and learning. Finally, we will share tips and tricks for those who want to start working with patients in their educational practice.
