Educating the Educator

The S.E.E. program is an innovative and award winning patient and family education program. How does it work? How was it designed? Most important, what are the techniques used in S.E.E. that can be used in the office or consulting room? How can these techniques be adapted to educating patients and families with other health disorders? The methods used in S.E.E. programs are almost 180 degrees opposite to traditional approaches to patient education, yet the S.E.E. program consistently shows effective patient and family learning and long-term quality of life benefits. Learn how and why these innovative approaches work. Dr. Mittan explains what these differences are and why they are essential to making a lasting difference in patients’ lives.
