How to use PKB with your students

As part of our social mission and company ethos, we offer the Patients Know Best platform free of charge to any institutions teaching medical, pharmaceutical or other healthcare students, to support the remote consultation and patient management practices of our future healthcare professionals.
Image

Educational institutions can use the platform for simulation activities in various ways:

Image
Volunteer role-play: work with patient volunteers or actors for students to interact with
Image
Student role-play: students role-play, taking on the characters of both patients and healthcare professionals
Image
Case study learning: students work with test patient records constructed as case studies to review, add data to, and use to make assessments around

Frequent use cases of PKB for simulated activities are during:

Teaching the future of care

“This has allowed the students to get an opportunity to use technology in their communications with their patients and to enhance the students' understanding of the holistic care of a patient. The students get to put themselves ‘in the shoes of the patient’ and start to practise compassionate care”.

Dr Mandie Scamell
Programme Director at City University of London

Embarking onto my future as a Doctor

“I feel more passionate to ensure my patients feel valued.... I don’t want ‘patient centred care’ to be an empty phrase to my patients as I want them to be involved in their care and feel listened to...”
