What do people think? For "lay" partner roles in healthcare, is it necessary to have had significant experience as a patient?
@gourmetpenguin @katemasters67 @allyc375 I wonder if HCP can ever have the 'rabbit in the headlights' perspective of a pt, once trained tho?

@C7RKY@katemasters67@allyc375 don't know. I agree it's different. But it's also part of me. It doesn't disappear. -
@gourmetpenguin@katemasters67@allyc375 Appreciated. But a pt's lack of understanding does disappear. Hard to stand in the same river again -
@C7RKY@gourmetpenguin@katemasters67 As a long termer I got chucked in the river in 1998 on diagnosis & am still up to my neck. -
@allyc375@C7RKY@katemasters67 so many different experiences: diversity is what matters? -
@gourmetpenguin@C7RKY@katemasters67 Think diversity of thought, of perspective is vital. Am hearing implied "we only want a certain type" -
@allyc375@gourmetpenguin@katemasters67 Certain types think a certain way, produce certain results & put us up certain creeks...unarmed.
