Evening Rounds is back! Mark Gilbert and Devon Haag from the BCCDC Online Sexual Health Services Team will present Let’s Get Digital: Improving Public Health through an Online Sexual Health Service.

As the health care system increasingly turns to digital strategies and innovations for improving public health, it’s important to understand the effectiveness of these new approaches. Evaluations of online and mobile health interventions are scant, particularly within sexual health literature.

This presentation will use GetCheckedOnline, BC’s online testing service for sexually transmitted and blood-borne infections, as a case study to examine ways to assess the impacts of digital public health interventions.

SCHEDULE:

Doors open 5:30 p.m. Come have a snack, say hello, get comfortable.

Presentation begins at 6:00 p.m. There will be time for questions and discussion after, and we’ll wrap up at 7:00!

Patient and family partners should not be a check box on research proposals! They need to be involved right from the start. I know patient and family partners are doing their part by providing their knowledge to researchers from their lived experience.  It’s a win-win for us to work together through PVN to make sure our input drives improvements.
