Our Resources

INFORM ENGAGE EMPOWER

Incorporating the patient voice

• Hierarchical Rhetoric

• ‘Walking the walk’ at the highest possible level

Challenges:• Decision-makers never want to change their processes

• Patients are not trained in health policy, dialogue

• Many patient orgs are not focused on policy/R&D issues

“The perfect is the enemy of the good”

IPPOSI & The European Patients Academy

• EUPATI produces Expert Patients on Medicines Research & Development

• Provides Training & Education

• Disseminates through national platforms

The project received support from the Innovative Medicines Initiative Joint Undertaking under grant agreement n° 115334, resources of which are composed of financial contribution from the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) and EFPIA companies.

18+ EUPATI National Platforms

• Bring all stakeholders together in countries

• Address educational needs in R&D

• Disseminate EUPATI’s training material

National platforms now established in:

AT, BE, FR, DE, IE, IT, LU, MT, PL, ES, CH, UK, DK, SK, PT, NO, RO, GR

Additional platform initiatives ongoing in Serbia, Brazil, Japan

Roles change as a result of EUPATI course- creating patient leadersRole Before EUPATI After

Member of patient organisation, not actively involved 17% 2%

Active role in a patient organisation 62% 71%

EUPATI Fellows are increasingly taking leadership roles and are engaging with pharma, regulators and HTA bodies.

Role changes also imply identity shifts.

Data Quality

What we have learned…

• Trust is vital - patients must believe that their data is secure and only used for the purposes they consented to

• Equally, create the situation where patients are the drivers of their data, ensuring it is utilised to improve their health

What do we need to enable use (& re-use) of patient data?

• Good Education

• Legal Frameworks

• SOPs

• Framework of Engagement

Everyone to understand the potential and know how to make the most of it

What would a framework of engagement for use (& re-use) of patient data look like?

A unique framework that enables structured, effective, meaningful, ethical, innovative, and sustainablepatient engagement

(and demonstrates the ‘return’ on this engagement for all players)

Phase 1:

Person-centered, co-ordinated care

Person centered co-ordinated care

Themes Emerging From Phase 1

My healthcare

experiences

Healthcare I am

confident in

My journey through

healthcare

My healthcare experiences

• Staff communicate with me in a way that I understand.

• I have up-to-date information on my health condition(s), treatments, and available support services.

• Staff help me to understand the choices and services available to me now and for my future care.

• Healthcare staff listen to me so that they understand my world and what is important to me.

• I am treated with empathy, respect and dignity in all dealings with healthcare staff.

• In partnership with healthcare staff, I make choices based on what I prefer and my goals.

• If I choose, my information can be shared securely with relevant healthcare staff.

• I do not have to repeat myself each time I meet new healthcare staff involved in my care.

• I can contact the relevant healthcare staff to ask questions that are important to me and I get timely responses to my questions.

• Decisions about my care include me as much as I want and involve my carers if I choose.

Phase 2

• http://www.hse.ie/yourvoicematters

• Survey Live Sept-Oct. 2017 • Proof-of-Concept• Producing data on patients’ experience of care when they use

more than one health service during this period

• Target: • 1000 stories nationally, particularly in relation to older people

people with chronic conditions

• Channel through Integrated Care Programmes HSE

By end of 2017… By end of 2018…

A ‘tried and tested’ framework

• To hear a high volume of patients’ experiences through the online survey

• To use data to influence service design, delivery and improvement of integrated care

• A qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the proof of concept within the context of the HSE;

Integration into ‘business as usual’

• Framework (incl. resource implications) to be integrated into a ‘business as usual’ model

• Quality and Patient Safety Structures at CHO level will be essential

• QID publication: ‘Quality and Safety Committees; Guidance and resources’

Wed. Oct. 25th, 2017

• eHealth Ecosystem Event• Radisson Blu, Golden Lane, D2• 1pm-5pm

• Highlights • Projects in Ireland that empower

patients to manage their own health• Ways that patients should be

involved in the innovation process

The patient advocate perspective?

“You’re looking at the macro picture and you have to, but somewhere out there are all these microchips and we’re making up the macro picture.”

“Are we just the collateral damage while you all get some years to sort out this business? If the Troika wanted it, you would be doing it tomorrow.”
