Bring your voice to health care regulation in BC!

The BC Public Advisory Network brings the public voice and perspective to multiple health regulators in the province, whose shared mandate is to serve and protect the public by regulating health care professionals (such as pharmacists, doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and dentists). As health regulators, our job is to make sure only qualified people practice in a safe and professional manner in BC.

Members of the BC Public Advisory Network will be asked to provide their feedback on important issues related to health care regulation, such as professional standards and policies, strategic priorities and communications directed at the public, and will be compensated for meeting attendance, as well as for travel and accommodation costs.

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.
