What a great opportunity! Right in our fair city, Wichita! The University of Kansas School of Medicine is opening their doors for you to be a “standardized patient.”
This was a new concept when I was in medical school 20 years ago. People 18 years or older are needed to portray patients who have a particular medical history, body language, physical examination results, emotion and personality. And, you get paid! No medical or acting experience needed.
If you are interested in pretending to be a patient (and helping medical students learn), there is an informational session Thursday, March 29, 2012 at “the School”–1010 North Kansas in Wichita from 5 pm to 6:30 pm. 316 293-2615.
I love teaching. . . and now YOU can get in on “the act.”
