Join a 病人 and Family Advisory Council (PFAC)

 

Uniting with 病人s, Families and Caregivers

A 病人 and Family Advisory Council (PFAC) is an organization of current and former patients, 家庭成员 and caregivers that work together to advance best practices in our hospital.

病人 and family advisors are individuals who have received care at our hospital and who offer insights/input to help us provide care and services that are based on patient and family identified needs rather than the assumptions of what 临床医生 or other hospital staff think that patients and 家庭 want.

The goal of the patient and family engagement is to create an environment where patients, 家庭, 临床医生, 医院工作人员 all work together as partners to improve the quality and safety of hospital care.  病人 and family engagement encompasses behaviors by patients, 家庭成员, 临床医生, 医院工作人员, as well as the organizational policies and procedures that support these behaviors.

The meetings are held in the hospital Annex building a minimum of once a month for two hours, and a meal is served.  If you are interested in becoming a member of our PFAC please complete and submit the online application.
