| Title | Patient Partnership in Medical Education: A Case Study for Co-Designing Curriculums |
| Background/Purpose | Patient partnership in medical education is a growing practice which fosters innovation across the curriculum. The Association of Faculties of Medicine of Canada (AFMC), in collaboration with the Centre of Excellence on Partnerships with Patients and the Public (CEPPP) of University of Montreal, have co-developed full Post Graduate Medical Education and Continuing Professional Development curriculums in response to the Opioid crisis in partnership with patients having lived experience of opioids use. This curriculum complements the existing undergraduate medical education curriculum |
| Methods | This curriculum was developed using CEPPP's co-construction methodology. Initial topic lists and competencies were co-constructed in collaboration with expert group patient partners. During module development, healthcare professional (HCP) subject matter experts (SME) were twinned with patient SMEs from across Canada, for a total of 13 SME working groups. Patient SME recruitment and training was conducted by CEPPP using their patient partner recruitment guidelines. |
| Results | Patient and health care professional SMEs developed a total of 15 modules. CEPPP and AFMC teams conducted regular follow-up meetings to monitor and support the work of the SMEs. In parallel to module development, patient SMEs on this project developed a Patient partnership toolkit, an online tool to support the physician-patient relationship in the context of opioid prescription and use. |
| Discussion | This presentation highlights CEPPP's co-construction methodology, how it was applied to this project, and observations from both the patient and HCP SME perspectives. Implications for future curriculum development projects in partnership with patients and the public will also be described. |
