To address this specific challenge, a Canadian healthcare organization, the Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de services sociaux de la Mauricie-et-du-Centre-du-Québec, has developed an integrated strategy based on three principles: (1) shared leadership between a patient and a manager to build the strategy; (2) a clear process for recruiting, training, and coaching patient advisors (PA) so that they can participate in decision-making at the various levels of governance of the establishment; and (3) a feedback process for improving the strategy over time. This initiative gave rise to a pool of 30 patient advisors who reviewed documentation (39.07%), presented testimonies to establishment practitioners (13.73%), participated in process improvement activities (12.97%) and committees (8.93%), and helped train students in health sciences (11.61%). It also led to the development of a request form for all persons wishing to involve PAs in their projects. This PA involvement, highly appreciated by both managers (94%) and PAs (81%), brought back the fundamental meaning of the patient–practitioner relationship and helped incorporate patients’ experiential knowledge into the care and service improvement process. This strategy can serve as a model for other organizations wishing to structure optimal patient engagement at the different levels of governance of their organization.Marie-Pascale PomeyEdith MorinCatherine NeaultVeronique BironLise HouleLouise LavigueurGuy BouvetteNicole St-PierreMartin BeaumontThe Beryl Institutearticlepatient partnership; patient-centred care; hospitals; healthcare organizations; patient advisor; patient-as-partnerMedicine (General)R5-920Public aspects of medicineRA1-1270ENPatient Experience Journal (2016) |
