The ultimate aim of teaching in medicine is for patients to benefit from the knowledge and skills that we have been able to convey.

Medicine is an activity with a huge human impact. Therefore, treatments in which the greatest respect, care and kindness is given to patients must be on the same footing as the medical care given based on expertise of outright scientific excellence that requires constant nurturing.

It is very enriching that the professionals who interact daily with patients and families, and face challenges in clinical practice, are the ones responsible for delivering practical training, with the ultimate goal of making it useful in the daily work of healthcare professionals.

Our healthcare work teaches us valuable lessons every day. As a lecturer, my aim is to arouse this feeling by way of personalised scenarios, in which the students are able to learn from experiences and emotions by setting their individual learning pathways.
