An Online Course for Patient Advocacy

A number of you have written to me asking if there is somewhere you can take a course to learn to be a patient advocate.

I'm actually working on a course for you -- but this crossed my monitor this weekend, so I wanted to let you know it is available.

From the University of Connecticut Health Center: Health Ecademy. You'll watch a group of videos, and receive handouts for each segment. To describe the program, it says, "participants receive practical information to help them become better, more successful patients and patient advocates for their children, spouses and aging parents."

If patient advocacy is of interest to you, please take a look. If you decide to take the courses, will you let us know how you make out?
