By working with patients and those with lived experience of health care, as equals during their undergraduate education, it is hoped that medical students will learn to listen to patients more effectively and continue to learn from them throughout their career. Patients and the Public are at the heart of medical education and have a key role to play in the whole educational process. The role is split between a clinical co-lead and a patient/public co-lead who work in tandem to fulfil the responsibilities of the post.

They will work with educators, patients, and lay members of the public to develop novel and innovative approaches to enhance patient and public involvement in medical education, providing and sharing advice of best practice whilst advocating for the interests and needs of patients and the wider public. Given the ambition of the PPI strategy, the coleads need to choose the focus of their activities in order to maximise their effectiveness. Over time, the co-leads aim to be working with clinical colleagues who lead on different sections of the course to ensure that the whole curriculum involves patients in its planning and/or delivery. At the moment, the PPI co-leads represent the interest of patients in medical school discussions, and promote patient involvement and its potential in individual sections of the entire course.
