Topic

The goal of the course is to enable medical students to practice their medical communication skills in various doctor-patient situations. The course initially demonstrates the basic principles of medical communication and then provides students with opportunities to put these skills into practice. The acquisition of effective medical communication skills is made possible by practicing fictive patient-doctor consultations, using the theoretical background of the Calgary-Cambridge model as a guide. It is our goal for the students to develop a patient-centered attitude and to be consciously aware of applying the elements of effective medical communication.

In the second part of the course, it is our goal to acquaint the medical students with the special characteristics of communicating with patients from different social, cultural, ethnic and demographic backgrounds as well as to teach them about telemedicine: medical communication online and about communication of medical errors. We also aim to encourage students to put their new knowledge into practice.

The curriculum of the course was designed with the collaboration of the following Institutes: Department of Behavioural Sciences, the Department of Languages for Specific Purposes, the Medical Simulation Center and the Institute of Primary Health Care. The course is made up of 24 classes. In the first part of the course, in the Basic module, students learn the basic principles of medical communication. Then students participate in the Special Modules:

1. Ethical questions in medical communication. Communication of medical errors. 2. Telemedicine, Digital/Online communication 3. The management of social and cultural diversity in medical practice.
