Opportunity Purpose
We are looking to invite about 12 diverse resident, family caregiver and staff partners to participate as members of a Partners Group in long-term care and assisted living at Fraser Health. The purpose of this group will be to support current partnerships in timely COVID-19 related projects as well as maintain and inform the establishment of an ongoing Partners Group in long-term care and assisted living.

What’s Involved
Advisory members will be asked to engage in activities such as sharing their perspectives, informing research questions, identifying priorities, approving activities, reviewing documents, developing protocols, providing feedback and brainstorming ideas. Specific role expectations, scheduling details and the time commitment required from members will be discussed and agreed upon in collaboration with the researchers once the group is established.

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.
