Arthritis school Just for fun, I googled the term "arthritis school" and came up with 19,300 hits. However, a good many of the items seemed to deal with school-aged children and teens dealing with juvenile arthritis.

arthritis patient education program

Sven's answer is correct but if you prefer a more explanatory translation you could use something like "arthritis patient education program"
Example sentence:

Evaluation of a rheumatoid arthritis patient education program: impact on knowledge and self-efficacy.

Our first patient education program was the Arthritis Self-Management Program.

Peer comment(s):

agree Michael Ellis : This could be simplified to "Arthritis patient education" which gets many relevant hits in my search engine, wheras 'Arthritis school' get few, being counter-intuitive as it sounds like place where one is taught to contract Arthritis!
