DESCRIPTION
The Patient & Family Care Experience Program pairs first year medical and pharmacy students with patient / family advisors over a six month period. Students learn firsthand what it’s like for patients and families to journey through our system. In this unique program, students have the opportunity to understand the role that patient and family members have as valuable members of the health care team, and to gain insight into how their health challenges have altered their lives. Come hear about the program and how it’s shaping the patient and family-centred culture of our future care providers.

I enjoyed the students very much. They are so young and full of potential (advisor)
