The field of medical humanities started to come into being nearly 50 years ago. It, and the field of bioethics, grew from the new tools of medicine that were presented to practitioners and the concomitant questions being raised about the use of those tools, especially by students.
The focus is to continue the development of educational initiatives in narrative medicine, medical history, literature and theatre, enriching the culture of care at Cleveland Clinic. Please use the links below to see descriptions of some of our work with them.
