AMS Humanities in Healthcare at UBC

Our club aims to promote the practice of narrative medicine, the idea of using literature and storytelling to give patients the opportunity to discuss their personal experiences so health professionals can better treat them. Instead of equating patients to their diagnosis, narrative medicine is a more holistic approach to coming up with adequate treatments for those seeking healthcare. At Humanities in Healthcare, we shed light on the importance of narrative medicine through hosting book clubs, movie nights, healthcare panels, mentorship programs, and our critically acclaimed case competition. 

Check Out Our Blogs!

We launched our blog in late 2023 and have used it to create a community of healthcare enthusiasts, as well as to offer a safe space for discourse around the healthcare system, current events, the nature of narrative medicine, as well as personal stories.
