We have a new opportunity for UK medical students interested in developing their interpersonal skills when faced with difficult patient decisions through the Family Nurturing Center! The program, “Support Over Silence,” helps to develop skills needed to sit with patients in their time of need. Students complete a 3 hr course that is guided by social workers and counselors to build an understanding of how to manage and guide the experience of human suffering. The goal of this program is to improve our own skills while gaining insight into how to be more present for our patients. It is being held on October 24th at Albright from 2-5 pm, and dinner will be provided.

To sign up, scan this QR code and reach out to Natalie or Shilpa with any questions!
