Lived Experience, with Katherine Dib and Katie Birnie...

2020/10/18

What exactly do we mean when we say 'lived experience'? What does it convey that other terms don't? What sort of extra 'work' is the term doing, and for whose benefit? Lots to consider! We take listeners through two segments in this episode. First, we speak with an organization that is committed to patient engagement and partnership, and also hiring people with lived experience into certain roles. Then, taking a wider view on engagement generally, we contemplate the ins and outs of the term 'lived

2020/10/04

Early on in the pandemic, Ontario's long term care (and other healthcare) facilities) shut out all visitors and family members from visiting their loved ones. This included essential (unpaid) family caregivers, who are typically an important part of a resident's care team. The hardship has been, and continues to be, unbearable for many. In addition, many patient engagement and partnership activities were suspended, or dropped entirely. It's a widely held view that if patients and caregivers had been

2020/08/03

2020/07/06

Patient engagement is often loosely described as adhering to democratic principles even though, as we discussed in Dilemmas of Representation, there is rarely an election apparatus to support it. We thought it would be interesting to learn more about patient-led organizations that democratically elect who speaks and acts on their community’s behalf. The Empowerment Council is a mental health service user advocacy organization funded by the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto. In this

Dilemmas of Representation, with Paula Rowland

Matters of Engagement ·

2020/06/29

Calls for more diversity and better representation among engaged patients or patient partners seem to prompt changes to recruitment tactics and making engagement more accessible. What if there’s more to it than that? We talk to Paula Rowland about the paper she co-authored (with Arno Kumagai) called “Dilemmas of Representation“, which applies the concept of “recruitmentology” to engagement practice, explores types of representation, and explains why we may encounter trouble when there’s a mismatch

Patient partners should be supported to elevate their skills and knowledge so they can contribute to healthcare improvement and system change, as experts in their own right. This is how Francine Buchanan sees the future of patient partnership. We speak with Francine about her views, and about the article she wrote on healthydebate.ca in response to Frank's.

Expertise Part 1, with Frank Gavin

Matters of Engagement ·

2020/06/16

Are patients ‘experts’? Does lived experience automatically mean one has expertise? What are we really saying, or accomplishing, when we call patients experts? We think about these questions and talk to Frank Gavin about his article on healthydebate.ca. Frank isn’t sold on the ‘expert’ label as it applies to patient experience, and he explains why in our conversation.
