As medical student caregivers (see this definition of a medical student: student.bmj.com/student/view-article.html?id=sbmj030241)
we discuss and learn from patient cases and practice what is also
labeled as 'patient centered learning' and along with this we try to get
students (ourselves) to write case-study based qualitative research
papers based on our 'patient-centered learning'
experiences. We also communicate on emails as there are many emailing
online users who may not have the time or inclination to be on all
forums. As medical students you can contribute to nurturing this
learning ecosystem by starting to share
your cases (patient experiences after obtaining and uploading their
informed consent) to our website http://care.udhc.co.in
and then discussing them on our online forum of 600+ users. Don't be intimidated by the
fact that you may not have been trained to handle cases in college. All you need to evaluate cases is just common sense and if you
have good knowledge of anatomy it becomes an added bonus. Everything
else can be learned through further online mentoring.
Will be looking forward to your inputs and don't hesitate to clarify
your doubts either through messaging or preferably through crowd-sourcing
them in our online forum.
