Healthy Discussions: Patient/Public Engagement

Have you ever wondered if sharing your lived experience would make a difference in health care or research? Are you looking for a way to get involved and make a change in health care? Join us to discuss patient/public engagement in health research and care delivery. We’ll be joined by a patient partner, a researcher and a patient/public engagement consultant for a conversation about the value of patient/public engagement, how to ensure that engagement is meaningful, the power of story-telling, and how lived experience can translate to expertise when it comes to research and leadership.

Watch this healthy discussion about the process of undergoing genetic assessment, counselling and testing in Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as the essential things people consider when making decisions about genetic testing.
