CNIB BC Advocacy Committee would like to invite you to complete our short health care experience survey.

Your experiences and ideas will help us inform health authorities, service providers, governments and schools. Our goal is to improve healthcare for people who are blind, partially sighted or deaf-blind. We want health care to be easier to access and better focused on what people with sight loss need.

Please tell us about your health care experiences, both the good and the challenging. We want to learn about the barriers you face and the strategies you use to manage them.

The survey asks about:
· making appointments
· visiting health care offices and buildings
· medical testing, forms and instructions
· prescriptions
· transportation

This survey is for people in BC who are blind, Deafblind or are partially sighted, or their caregivers/supporters. It is anonymous and takes about 15-20 minutes to complete.

Your experience can help create real change. We also encourage you to share this invitation with others who may be interested. Every response helps strengthen this work.

Where those of us in the room may have debated policy or wording, patient voices made sure patients were top of mind. And as a result, significant improvements were made to simplify something that was otherwise complex. Patient voices at the table bring us back to reality in terms of what we are trying to achieve.
