Opportunity Purpose
We would like to involve patients to create a tool to predict when medical problems may happen after bowel surgery (colectomy), to help guide patient education and self-monitoring.

What’s Involved
We would like to hear about how the tool would be most helpful to patients: what information would patients want, how to present the information?

It’s really hard to make changes in health care. When a PVN patient partner says, ‘This is important to us’ it keeps us grounded on why a change is needed and keeps us motivated to keep going on projects.
