EP.15: SP & Author

This week we chat with guest Pat Beaven, SP and Author of FAKE PATIENT and learn about her book, the first (non-technical!) written work about Standardized Patients.

Pat Beaven is a writer, educator, and actor living in Toronto, Canada. After teaching with the school board for sixteen years, she left because there were so many other paths she wanted to explore. She has worked in television, film, and radio, and has acted on stage in regional and dinner theatre across the country. Discovering SP work eighteen years ago has allowed her to blend her teaching and acting background; Pat loves the variety of the work and enjoys the roles she plays as a medical, physiotherapy, psychiatry, pharmacy, and social work patient or client. Sharing those experiences in her third book, FAKE PATIENT, has been a joy.

Look out for Pat’s upcoming audio voiceover projects this spring and her fourth book, a memoir early this summer!

FAKE PATIENT can be purchased on Pat’s website
