The purpose of this study is to understand what patients think about the digitization of patient health information (e.g. lab results, physician notes) in the emergency room. The results of this study will guide the development of digital tools that empower patients and their care providers to meaningfully use the medical information collected during their emergency room visits.

Who can participate?

Adults (19 years or older) who have received care at a BC emergency department within the last 5 years.

What is involved?

You can participate by completing an anonymous online questionnaire. The questionnaire takes 15 minutes to complete. It asks about your experience in the emergency department as well as how you believe the digitization of patient medical information can or should affect care.

PVN has really helped us engage with patient partners to improve health services at Northern Health.  It is more and more becoming the norm to include patients in the design, delivery and evaluation of health services.  PVN education and supports, involving patient partners, have enabled us to develop the capacity to include the patient voice to make care better and achieve better health outcomes.
