Part 1: Enhancing healthcare through collaborative digital platform education


Our presentation will explore the transformative potential of collaboratively developed digital platforms in healthcare education.


We will discuss the development and impact of OSPIA, a co-designed online platform fostering learning interactions between students and simulated patients (SPs).


By involving patients as key stakeholders in a collaborative process, we have created OSPIA to deliver personalized learning and feedback which bridges the gap between academia and real-world healthcare practices.


This topic is crucial for the International Forum program as it aligns with the imperative of encompassing patients in healthcare planning, while providing future healthcare staff with supportive environments to develop skills for the delivery of safe and compassionate care.
