Advance the Patient Voice

Home Advance the Patient Voice

Font Size: •

From our learning programs to our provincial campaigns, we have always aimed to keep the patient perspective at the heart of our work. Patients and their families are the reason for our efforts, and meeting their needs requires collaborating with them and learning from their experiences.

We work to develop strong relationships with patients, family members and caregivers who are keen to share their experiences and voice to improve the quality of care throughout British Columbia. We are energized by their passion as well as the desire from health care organizations to create meaningful opportunities for patients and caregivers to shape health care services and delivery. Learn more about how we are advancing the patient voice in health care by exploring this section.
