Modeling Compassion and Empathy for Better Patient Care

CEimpact Podcast

Can compassion and empathy be learned? Can it be taught? The evidence suggests that the answer to both of these questions is yes, and yet as preceptors, we interact with student pharmacists and pharmacy residents who are wide-ranging in their abilities and comfort-level when it comes to fostering impactful patient care interactions.
In this episode, explore the value (and challenges) of incorporating strategies that model and teach empathy and compassion - for your patients, your learners, and for you.
