Co‐Producing an Empathy‐Focused Medical Curriculum With Patients, Educators, and Students
Co-producing a medical curriculum can lead to important curricular changes, including greater integration of the patient voice across a five-year programme. Five key learning points can assist curriculum developers in their future efforts to co-produce medical curricula: 1) appoint an independent point-of-contact to support participants, 2) create a feedback loop, 3) encourage various modes of engagement, 4) explore and be open to all contributions, and 5) be transparent about the process.
