Unique features of the training program:
• A pedagogical approach based on the expertise of members from organizations and institutions specializing in education and healthcare—who collaborate on the steering committee (University, CHRU (UTEP), AFDET)—as well as on the experience of hospital teams and patient associations already involved in the initiative.
• Development of a shared culture centered on patient support (living environment—care setting).
• A multidisciplinary approach involving both the public and healthcare providers.
• Emphasis on giving patients a voice to share their experiences.
