Because your voice matters.

Share What Matters to You

What Matters to You? Day is a new campaign with the simple goal of encouraging meaningful conversations between patients, caregivers, and families, and their health care providers.

The campaign started in Norway in 2014, and has grown into a global initiative, with over 500 teams in 14 countries participating in 2016. This year, for the first time, “What Matters to You?” Day (#WMTY17) is happening in BC.

As discussed at Oversight & Advisory Committee meeting on April 25, we want to promote our Committee`s support, so we’re asking for messages from committee members to put together a blog post to share with the Network, highlighting the importance of the campaign and how it supports PVN’s work.

Would you like to participate? If so, please just answer the question below, and don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions or suggestions.

Thank you!

Patient and family partners should not be a check box on research proposals! They need to be involved right from the start. I know patient and family partners are doing their part by providing their knowledge to researchers from their lived experience.  It’s a win-win for us to work together through PVN to make sure our input drives improvements.
