Background • Immigrants often:
– Struggle with language difficulties – Lack information – Say that health professionals do not understand them
• Immigrants with cancer have been shown to have:
– Poorer health outcomes – Lower survival rates – More side effects – Poorer quality of life – Greater distress
All of the above may adversely affect their psychological well-being. Therefore, tailoring their involvement in decision-making is critical factor
in facilitating the gold standard in patient-centered care.
Journal of Psychological, Social and Behavioral Dimensions of Cancer, Vol 20 (Oct. 2011), p.10-14.
Why a Spanish Advisory Council?
• As patient populations become increasingly diverse, healthcare organizations are demonstrating increased commitment to providing patient-centered care to vulnerable populations (Wynia and Matiasek, 2006).
• Hispanics comprise nearly 20% of the patient population at City of Hope.
• The Spanish-Speaking Patient and Family Advisory Council allows us to link with the community to:
1. Enhance patient/healthcare team communication 2. Enhance patient education and safety 3. Increase awareness and utilization of supportive resources
Getting Started • Acquired departmental support via Request for Proposal
(RFP) process – Staff protected time – Administrative support – Resources: marketing materials, food funds, incentives
• Created a multi-disciplinary team – An integrated team of staff from various areas of the institution: social
workers, navigator, nursing research, patient resource coordinator, patient health education, and publication staff
• Resulted in what has become a 3-phase process: – Phase I Development – Phase II Sustainability – Phase III Visibility & Utilization
Phase I “To create an advisory council that will give voice and empower Spanish-speaking
patients and caregivers to enhance educational and supportive programs for patients and caregivers at the City of Hope. The council will bridge the language
and cultural gap between Spanish-speaking patients and caregivers and the healthcare team and institution.”

Our Pearls of Wisdom
• Don’t Reinvent the Wheel
– Borrow and modify from other programs • The Institute for Patient and Family Centered Care
has webinars and educational materials for direction
• Use other models of patient councils for guidelines – We used the model of the Patient and Family Advisory
Council at COH and resource/education from other non-cancer Spanish PFAC’s to meet our needs
Pearls of Wisdom
• Leadership Matters – Co-chairs with vision, drive and commitment – Dedicated staff members – Established administrative support – Incorporate mentorship, skills-building and
education for both staff and members
• Find Staff Champions – Sponsors and mentors
• Key stakeholders that will support the efforts and link to opportunities and initiatives
Pearls of Wisdom
• Re-evaluation – What is working/what is not – Foster and model transparency – Reevaluate commitments – Take time off for this process if needed
