| More Information | Simulated patient practice with actors© |
| We collaborated with the IHC and designed skill practice session for Choices and Changes graduates.
Past graduates practice skills that they have learned in a C&C workshop with an actor simulating a typical patient. The graduates receive feedback on ways to make best use of their skills that they can use in their interactions with their clients. These sessions are intended to increase a graduate’s confidence and achieve proficiency in C&C skills.
These sessions are offered on a quarterly basis at no cost. Each session is 2 hours in length with a maximum of 6 health care providers per session.
