Opportunity Purpose
Researchers at UBC would like to better understand the long-term costs of c-sections and vaginal deliveries to the health care system. We would like to learn from our patient partners about their experiences giving birth, their post-partum period, and if/how mode of delivery has affected subsequent pregnancies or any aspect of their physical and mental wellbeing.

Details
Our patient partners are advisors on the project, and help us refine our research question and analysis. Please note that we are currently recruiting partners from the health authorities listed below: Interior and Northern.

Eligibility
Age: 19 Years – 45 Years Old
Accepting Healthy Volunteers: No

It has been so rewarding to go from an idea to working with such a great group of dedicated people from so many different organizations towards a very fun and rewarding project. Several extremely engaged PVN members expressed interest in being part of piloting a patient virtual care peer support system. I am confident that this is the beginning of many more exciting collaborations!
