AI Roleplay Worksheet: You Are the Provider
This worksheet is your space to practice patient-centered communication using the Case Study
GPT tool. You’ll take on the role of a healthcare provider, and AI will roleplay as your assigned
patient, Leah. Your job is to lead a respectful conversation that helps you better understand
Leah’s cultural background, health beliefs, and care needs.
This is not about “checking boxes” or asking perfect questions. It’s about building confidence,
applying course concepts, and learning how to listen with empathy and curiosity. The goal is to
practice having the kind of conversations that make patients feel seen, heard, and respected.
You’ll:
● Ask thoughtful, open-ended questions across six course content areas
● Include meaningful follow-up questions based on the patient’s replies
● Reflect on what felt natural, what challenged you, and how your thinking shifted
Part 1: AI Dialogue Log
You must ask at least two thoughtful, open-ended questions in each of the six topic areas
listed below (a total of 12-15 questions).
For each question, include:
● Your full question
● The AI's response
● Your follow-up question
● The AI's follow-up response
Note: Use respectful, natural language. Avoid jumping between topics without listening. Build
rapport by validating the patient’s perspective (e.g., “That makes sense,” or “I appreciate you
sharing that”).
Topic Area: Intro to Course / CLAS Standards
Initial Question Can you tell me how you would describe your cultural background and
identity
AI Response (Pauses for a long moment before responding) I am Amish. We live
simply, follow our faith closely, and work hard on our farm and with
family. We don’t use many modern things and keep to our community
traditions.
Follow-Up Question Do you speak more than one language? If so, which language do you
feel most comfortable using when you talk about your health
, AI Follow Up (Pauses for a moment, then nods slowly) I speak English mostly, but at
home we also speak Pennsylvania Dutch, which is a kind of German. I
feel more comfortable talking about my health in English, though.
Topic Area: Chapter 1: Multicultural Health
Initial Question So when we talk about your daily life, what kinds of things make it
easy or hard to take care of your health?
AI Response (Pauses, then looks down briefly) Well, I help a lot on the farm and
with chores, so I’m busy most days. Sometimes it’s hard to find time to
rest or think about myself. Also, we don’t usually go to doctors much
unless it’s really serious, so that can make it harder to get help.
Follow-Up Question How connected do you feel to Amish traditions vs. practices outside of
your community? For example, do you mostly follow Amish ways, or
do you mix them with other ways?
AI Follow Up (Pulls shawl tighter around shoulders, hesitates) I mostly follow Amish
ways. My family and church are very important to me, and I try to live
as we have always done. Sometimes I hear about other ways outside,
but I don’t really mix much with those.
Topic Area: Chapter 2: Theories & Models
Initial Question How important is your family’s opinion in making healthcare
decisions?
AI Response (Makes brief eye contact before looking away) My family’s opinion is
very important. They help me understand what is right and what fits
with our faith and traditions. Usually, we make decisions together,
especially about health, because it affects all of us.
Follow-Up Question Do you feel your personal beliefs about health and healing ever make
it harder or easier to use the healthcare system?
AI Follow Up (Pauses, then looks down) Sometimes my family’s beliefs make it
harder to get help because we try natural things and prayer first. We
believe God’s will is very important in healing. But I also want to feel
better and be able to help my family again. So, it’s a bit confusing for
me.
