Description
Patient engagement in health professions education takes many forms - including patients as storytellers, members of curriculum planning committees, guest lecturers, and health mentors. While these forms of patient engagement have many benefits for learners, educators, and the patients themselves, are they representative of the diversity of patients that health care professionals will encounter throughout their career?
In these rounds, Paula Rowland will shed new light on the dilemma of representation. She will argue for an understanding of representation that is not only inclusive of who is being represented but also carefully considers what is being represented, how, and why. This argument has implications for educators, learners, administrators, and patient participants.
