This resource includes personal interviews with many health care professionals, explaining their role in a patient&#8217;s diagnosis and/or treatment and management.</p><p>When appropriate, this resource includes parts from other Open Education resources which speak in more detail on normal anatomy &#38; physiology, clinical skills, interprofessional collaboration, and the patient experience with a visit to the hospital.</p>
