Welcome to the Patient Voices Network! Everyone must complete an orientation in order to participate in engagement opportunities. The orientation will cover everything you need to know to be a member and answer any questions you may have.

We’ll be hosting a free orientation session for new volunteers in Fort St John, BC. Any BC resident who has experienced our health care system (either directly or in support of someone else) and is interested in sharing their experiences and expertise to improve the care provided going forwards is invited to join.

From Our Community

Spiritual Health Practitioner and Patient- and Family-Centred Care Lead — Kelowna General Hospital

The bottom line is because we’re caring for patients. People who know best are those who are receiving the care so it makes logical sense that we would consult with them about their experiences. By connecting with PVN we have been able to educate our teams about the value of patient partners and how important their perspective is in our services.
