5th Train the Trainer program in Communication Skills to improve the Patient-Provider Relationship

In early February 2024, DrossmanCare, in collaboration with the Rome Foundation, completed their 5th Train the Trainer program in Communication Skills to improve the Patient-Provider Relationship. The 1 ½ day program identifies key opinion leaders in DGBI who are committed to enhancing their skills in the care of their patients and teaching other providers. The program involves lectures, small group video discussions, role-play sessions, and a Balint group where the group discusses difficulties in patient management. Participants are certified to become future facilitators.
