Event description
We are looking for six storytellers to share a story on stage. We welcome ALL voices and especially those of patients, medical students, clinic staff and caregivers of all kinds. If you’ve got a story, we want to hear it!
The theme is “Medicine in the Margins” and we’re looking for stories from the margins of healthcare: An offhand hallway conversation that became a lightbulb moment. The nurse’s aide whose presence made the difference.A story of practicing or receiving healthcare off the beaten path. The CAT scan with clean margins. The experience being a patient or caregiver in the margins.
PITCH YOUR STORY: Using the button below email NWNMC a brief outline of your idea + share a bit about who you are. Ben Colburn, the event’s curator and story coach will reach out! Never told a story in front of an audience before? Not a problem! Our team will listen and coach you before the event!
