Not Just Patients is a global podcast that aims to break barriers to meaningful patient involvement in healthcare. Hosted by Caitlin Rich and Clarinda Cerejo—both EUPATI Fellows and patients living with rare diseases—the podcast brings together a range of healthcare stakeholders to examine how healthcare can become more inclusive, collaborative, and effective.
Over the past two years, the award-winning podcast has explored patient engagement through conversations with internationally recognised patients, professionals, and changemakers across the healthcare ecosystem.
For our special upcoming series, we are focusing on a critical and highly requested theme: Underserved Communities in Healthcare. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Racial and ethnic minorities
- Women
- Children and young patients
- Disabled people
- Neurodivergent people
- LGBTQIA+ communities
- People from lower- to middle-income countries
These are voices and perspectives that are often left out of mainstream healthcare conversations, and this series aims to change that.
The series will launch at the end of September, but in the meantime, you can listen to the growing library of episodes wherever you get your podcasts.
