We are looking for at least 5 patient partners to provide a review and feedback on a new patient handout that will be given to patients upon discharge at NRGH, RJH and VGH. The goal is to ensure the information provided in the handout is clear and “patient friendly”. There is an opportunity to make some minor updates to this handout.

There will also be opportunities to participate in a review of this form after it has been in use for 3-6 months.

This will be a virtual meeting on March 28, 2023 from 2:00-3:30

Recently, a PVN Patient Advisor asked healthcare partners, “What are we learning from patients, families, and others thus far during this pandemic?”. This is an excellent question and one to ask ourselves daily.
