DESCRIPTION
A session for patients and families from experienced patient and family advisors, on how to become more involved in the role and participate in a meaningful way. Cindy and Heather will both tell their stories on how they got involved as patient and family advisors, including the importance of this role and how they found their voice to speak up and be involved in many improvement efforts. A ‘how to’ for future advisors to find their voices and make changes in their home health regions. An excellent session for healthcare staff who are considering creating advisory councils in their own regions.
