Spår: Learning and Education, Workshops

Background: Developing person-centered healthcare should be a whole system endeavour including all (care, educational and collegial) relationships, structures and processes (Cook et al., 2022). At Fontys University of Applied Sciences we aim to educate self-aware and entrepreneurial professionals with and for healthcare organisations in Southern Netherlands through the generation, sharing and application of high-quality knowledge. We view the context of care and well-being as being highly complex and continuously changing and feel that future professionals need to be prepared to interact flexibly and proactively with these contexts. Person-centredness has been a core organisational value for some time, although its application has primarily been limited to person-centred care. As a partner in the development of the person-centered curriculum (PCC) framework we are undergoing an enlightenment journey into how person-centredness also ‘colours’ the way we educate future practitioners (Van Aalst et al., z.d.). The extensive and holistic view of a curriculum is particularly relevant for the Ba Nursing programme where students spend 50% of their time learning within practice. Working with the framework is starting to help educators within university and practice settings explore the meaning of person-centredness for their learning relationships and culture. Aim: For this workshop, we collected various stakeholders' experiences and perceptions of person-centeredness within our Bachelor of Nursing curriculum. The data was used to construct a multi-stakeholder narrative reflecting student, educator and leader perspectives within the university and the practice settings. Inviting participants to use the narrative content to formulate improvement actions and map them onto the PCC framework, we hope to enable active and meaningful engagement with a theoretical framework. Our intended audience are healthcare professionals, educators, students and leaders. Workshop outline: 1. A theatrical presentation of the current narrative. 2. ‘Refurbishing the Fontys house’: gathering improvement insights and suggestions. 3. Sum-up: mapping improvement onto the PCC-7S-model.

Amy Otto, who holds a master’s degree in Human Movement Sciences and a Basic Qualification of Teaching Competence from the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, has been working as a lecturer since 2019.

Since then, she has been on a mission to revitalize person-centeredness within FMG! Alongside her fellow ambassadors, she initiated the project “Expedition Person-Centered Education,” which aims to assess how person-centered education is perceived and implemented within the current HBO-V(T) curriculum, as well as identify any necessary steps for improvement.
