Adapting Educational Content to Healthcare Needs

Healthcare professionals need to keep learning new skills to contribute to a strong and trusted healthcare system that adapts to the evolving needs of patients and communities. For educators, this often means delivering educational content that may initially appear unrelated to healthcare practices, such as concepts from design, storytelling, or other disciplines. The challenge is to justify and adapt these topics effectively, ensuring they are relevant and valuable for healthcare audiences. This video offers educators practical tips for adapting and connecting such content to healthcare. By analyzing audience needs, identifying contextual entry points, and using practical examples, educators can help connect seemingly abstract concepts to practical applications in real-world healthcare. These approaches help educators turn unfamiliar topics into practical tools that improve professional practices and connect meaningfully with healthcare professionals.
