Though a few years old, this 28 page trainer’s kit about how to run a patient’s rights workshop still has a lot of solid information. The workshop can be adapted to a more discussion based model or work within a less interactive framework. This is another example of the great resources from the Vancouver Women’s Health Collective. The workshop outlines:
What are your rights as a patient
Looking for a medical provider
What to expect from a medical provider
What to expect from a physical checkup
How to get the best information about your diagnosis or treatment
What are the doctor's rights
