Let’s Get Real #1: Patients Must be Partners
Episode #1 in the “Let’s Get Real: Patients Must be Partners” webinar series
In times of transformation in health care, often the people who understand their issues the most are left out of the conversation.
Health care needs to evolve and embrace patients and families as partners in the journey for change. When those with lived experience expertise authentically partner with the expertise of providers, policy makers and researchers, safer and more inclusive care can happen.
On October 2019, Hélène Campbell moderated an engaging panel discussion between Julie Drury, Heather Thiessen and Leslee Thompson on the value of patient and family partnerships.
Watch the recording to learn first-hand about what works well for partnering with patients and families, what doesn’t and tips for collaborating on your system transformation and organizational quality improvement initiatives.
