As academic educators committed to training future health professionals, we should understand and address the new educational needs they may perceive as a result of the global increase in the number of chronically ill patients. This paper aims to present a new learning/teaching strategy that has been implemented in a bachelor course for health professionals, based on the evidence of: a) the complexity of the issue of therapeutic adherence; b) the lived experience of chronic illness as a personal matter; c) the usefulness of therapeutic patient education (TPE) conceived only as a transmissive practice.

Abstract
As academic educators committed to training future health professionals, we should understand and address the new educational needs they may perceive as a result of the global increase in the number of chronically ill patients. This paper aims to present a new learning/teaching strategy that has been implemented in a bachelor course for health professionals, based on the evidence of: a) the complexity of the issue of therapeutic adherence; b) the lived experience of chronic illness as a personal matter; c) the usefulness of therapeutic patient education (TPE) conceived only as a transmissive practice. In this course, some lectures were combined with workshops in which students were asked to deal with a real patient's story for whom they had to define an educational plan. The results show the success of the creative choices implemented from a training perspective and the satisfaction of the learners asked to experiment in the classroom a work practice with a high rate of autonomy.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
