New opportunities for patient partners to contribute to local quality improvement

Posted on: July 12, 2024

Island Health's evolving approach to quality improvement is creating new opportunities for patient partners to influence the quality of care in their local sites and community services. 

As you may have seen, the CG Membership Call Out for Point-of-care staff and medical staff opened on July 3, 2024.FINAL_cgii_framework_graphic (1).png

The Clinical Governance team and the Office of Experience are excited to announce that the EOI for patient partners​ to join the new local clinical governance committees is now live. 

We know that engaging and partnering with patients and families is key to providing excellent health care at all levels of service provision, including the new clinical governance committees.

The new clinical governance committees are being formed to help enable quality improvement in acute sites and community services across Island Health. Patient partners bring their valuable knowledge, perspectives and lived and living experience to these new tables and help improve the quality of care for patients, clients, and families.
