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.

Patient Experience Consultant – Interior Health

The question I like to ask health care employees is ‘Who is this for?’ and ‘Do we have the right people at the table?’ As a health care employee, I see how easy it is to fall into doing for, rather than doing with patients. The voices of the patient, family and caregiver are essential to ensure the patient is central to the direction and focus of the work being done.
