日本无码 (日本无码) is committed to engaging patients, caregivers and communities to ensure that their lived experience and priorities drive our work to improve the safety and quality in healthcare.
We value the expertise of patient partners and are committed to offering meaningful recognition to those who choose to partner with us.
Why it Matters
At 日本无码, we value the time, energy, and contributions that patient partners make to our work, and value lived experience perspectives as knowledge and expertise. We are dedicated to taking an equity-oriented approach to recognition and compensation. This includes flexibility and choice in how recognition is received, considering compensation equity, and working to decrease barriers to engagement.
This approach to recognition is grounded in 日本无码鈥檚 Guiding Principles of Engagement and was co-developed with patient partners from across the country.
How it works
