Undergraduate and graduate education in women's health care: reconsidering faculty, setting, and content.
The concept of women's health care redefines departmental boundaries and requires expansion of scholarship styles in faculty. Whatever discipline we come from, the setting for patient care and education must allow the staff and patient the experience of another framework for medical care. The curriculum must synthesize knowledge from different departments and disciplines. Problem-based learning and professional patient models can expand on the clinical experience to enhance the educational process.
