Education for professionals

Reading a study and explaining care to a patient call for different skills. We are preparing materials for professionals and students that connect assessing evidence with explaining care options clearly.

What we are preparing

Working with scientific evidence

We are preparing materials on reading research: how a study was conducted, who it included and what its results support. We will also look at when those results apply to a question from practice.

Clear communication with patients

We are working on examples of explaining care options in words patients understand. They will include ways to check understanding and discuss the patient’s questions and preferences before a decision.

Shared teaching resources

We are planning materials for exercises and discussions in medical and dental education. Authors and reviewers can suggest topics and examples. We do not currently offer accredited courses.

Resources are in preparation

These materials have not been published yet. We will name the authors and sources and include a review date. Clinical content will be checked by a professional. Contact us if you would like to help with writing, editing or translation.
