About the Project
- It is important to have opportunities for patients and their families to be engaged in health care research, planning, and decision making
- Seniors are the greatest users of the health care system
- Currently there is little focus on how to engage seniors within the health care system
Our Goal for Today
- Understand your opinions and experiences of patient and caregiver engagement in:
- Decisions about treatments and plans for care
- Decisions about health care policy, planning and priorities (and research)
- Gather feedback from you on strategies or frameworks to support greater involvement of patients and caregivers in the health care system
How we’re using your knowledge & experiences
- Your experiences and opinions will let us know your perspectives on how patients and caregivers would like to be involved in health care decision-making
- Results will be given to you, other citizens, researchers, and policy makers who can help change the system!
The term “Patient Engagement”
- Engagement = Your involvement
- involving patients and families in open communication and making decisions
- Also known as:
- Community Engagement, Patient Involvement, Consumer Engagement, Patient Centred Care…
We want to know how YOU want to be involved in your health care
