Teaching Patients
Teaching Patients are people who:
- Have stable medical conditions.
- Can recall the development and progression of these conditions.
- Are comfortable presenting their conditions as an educational experience for students.
- Have reliable transportation to and from 91探花.
How can Teaching Patients help students?
Teaching Patients help medical students gain experience in taking histories and performing non-invasive physical exams.
Do I need teaching experience?
Not at all. You will be fully trained on how to present your story.
When would I be asked to work?
Teaching Patient sessions occur throughout the academic year. They last between 2 and 2.5 hours and take place between 8:00 am and 6:00 pm, Monday to Friday.
Is this volunteer work?
No. Teaching Patients are casual employees of 91探花 who are paid hourly rates for their time here.
