Description

Participating on the PEPC Committee is an opportunity to observe the exchange of information with leaders who are in positions to act on Quality Improvement (QI) projects/clinical research(CR) results to expand scope, encourage spread, and share resources. As Patient Advisors we use the lenses of our personal identities, work history, and life experiences to provide perspective for the patients’ voices. We see the barriers of the patient-clinician relationship that don’t address the power differential and make assumptions (unconscious bias) that affect adherence and outcomes of care.
