What is a Standardized Patient?
Jan 09, 2020 12:00 PM
Many medical schools locally and across the country make frequent use of standardized patients (SP) as part of their medical training curriculum. SP’s act the part of patients during encounters with the students. I have worked as an SP since 2003 with several colleges and universities in the Portland area. I will describe what SP programs entail and the different ways SP’s are trained and utilized. I will also share my experience over a wide range of specific case scenarios that are used to give the students an introduction with real life situations they will encounter in their practice. |

From Grief to Resilience
Jan 23, 2020 12:00 PM
Loss of a dear loved one will impact us all sooner or later. How one grieves greatly impacts one’s present and future well-being. Without appropriate help often the result of a devastating loss is prolonged despair, emptiness, and desperation. With proper guidance and support, most of us are able to reconcile our loss and move ahead, reestablishing a productive and enjoyable life.
Dave Ripley is not a professional in this field. But he did suffer the shattering loss of his wife of 45 years eight years ago, and, thanks to so much wonderful support, was able to rebuild his life. For the past five years, he has helped facilitate a grief support group at an area hospital as a hospice volunteer,continuing to learn more about this important life topic and those who experience it. In his talk, “From Grief to Resilience”, he covers why it is so important to talk about this topic, common grief myths, and a wide range of activities that can help in moving to resilience. |

Oregon's Prison System - things you should know but don't!
Feb 13, 2020 12:00 PM
Oregon's prison system badly needs review! Fifty years ago (when the crime rate was higher) Oregon's population was 2.2 million and our three prisons housed less than 2000 people. Today our population is 4.2 million and we have 15,500 people in prison in over 20 facilities. We spend more on prisons than we do on Higher Education! Many of our prisons are in remote areas - long distances from families and visitors. Frankly, they got there as "economic development" more than sound planning! Oregon's Dept of Corrections and Youth Authority are lead by extremely competent professionals who are striving to make thoughtful changes. The Public needs to know what's going on! Roger and Trevor have a story you need to hear!"
