Learning how to listen<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Our culture and health are intertwined.<\/em>
\nGetting to know how our patient understands their health, is part of our learning in health professional training.<\/em>
\nWe are guided in this when we open our eyes, ears and hearts to the experience of learning.<\/em>
\nWe are grateful to have our students learning as one of community through clinical placements.<\/em>
\nShared decision making is necessary for the knowledge and knowing we have as health professionals, to be most helpful to our patient.\u00a0<\/em>
\nWe enable shared decision making with effective communication and especially listening.<\/em>
\nGarma has been an opportunity to connect with colleagues in a culture of learning that reinforces our diversity as people with different backgrounds, and our shared concerns and paths as people in our country.<\/em>
\nReconciliation is our journey.<\/em><\/p>\n
