Implications for Health Professional Education

  • Chapter
Health Practice Relationships

Part of the book series: Practice, Education, Work and Society ((PEWS))

Abstract

The above vignettes are offered as an illustration of the critical influence of health practitioner education as well as health practice systems and cultures on shaping health practitioners’ professional practice. In particular, the significant influence of these systems and contexts on relationships in practice is illuminated. While these vignettes represent different people, they also demonstrate a trajectory that many health practitioners experience from entering professional health practice education to becoming a professional health practitioner.
