'Healthcare professionals - doctors, dentists, physiotherapists, audiologists, optometrists - are now expected to have cultural, social and technical competencies that reach far beyond their biomedical training. And some clinical teachers have observed that graduates lack the capacity to demonstrate empathy or the skill of visually differentiating and prioritising what is important.' http://www.artshub.co.uk/education/news-article/features/arts-education/heat her-gaunt/teaching-doctors-empathy-through-art-252937 best wishes Jo Jo Ward Change Maker <tel:07708> Tel:07708 428096 + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + GEM list: Contact the list owner for assistance at [log in to unmask] For information about joining, leaving and suspending mail (eg during a holiday) see the list website at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=GEM + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
