Abstract

Canadian healthcare facilities are poised to benefit from the tools of precision health. To do so effectively, however, it is crucial that we align changes in how healthcare professionals are educated in order to ensure they have the skills, knowledge, and training to fully engage with its tools. Here, we propose that the design, development, and delivery of novel educational programs focused on precision health should be prioritized for healthcare professionals, and we suggest some essential curricular considerations to that end. Additionally, it is crucial to see engagement on the part of health leaders, who will ultimately be most responsible for managing the changing needs of frontline staff as the tools of precision health become increasingly available. By engaging directly with educators in establishing new programs for precision health, we can ensure that its promise is fully for healthcare facilities, practitioners, and patients.
