In this issue, the team focuses on the theme: "How to Teach Patient-Centered Care". Patients are essential members of the healthcare team, yet healthcare teams often neglect to actively involve patients in their care. This oversight can lead to issues between the medical team and patients, and the problem continues to escalate in modern times. To address this, future health science professionals must understand and implement patient-centered care in their practices.

This issue of SHEE Journal aims to provide insights into teaching students to involve patients as active participants in the healthcare team. It includes key strategies for educators on how to incorporate patient-centered care principles into teaching and assessment. The content presented in the journal includes articles from faculty members and medical residents from the Siriraj Health science Education Excellence center, Siriraj Medical School, and external experts. This comprehensive approach is designed to offer practical guidance for educators and to foster better collaboration between healthcare teams and patients, ultimately improving the patient experience and health outcomes.
