PATIENT EDUCATION

Student educators engage in a one-on-one talk with the patient right after they are diagnosed by the doctor and medical students. The principle goal of an educator is to encourage a patient in making lifestyle modifications and provide them with knowledge and resources. Such encouragement includes an adjustment of eating habits, recommendation of daily exercise, modification of cooking, so much more. Taking incremental steps is key to a healthy life, and our educators can help!

Our educators are trained by the Student-Run Free Clinic Project of Lestonnac team at UCI and work closely with physicians and medical students. All patient educators are trained on topics such as diet, exercise, lifestyle changes, sleep health, and stress relief. Although our patient educators are not trained in mental health, they do provide mental health resources.

      **Patient Education occurs at the very end of a patient’s visit.**

STEPS:
  1. Prospective patients fill out their medical history with forms provided by the clinic.
  2. Medical students then evaluate the patients one-on-one by asking background questions and performing a physical exam.
  3. To appropriately assess the patient’s health, the medical students will then meet with the physicians to discuss their findings. After meeting with the patient for the last time, additional questions are inquired for a final diagnosis.
