Linda Kenney from MITSS says, in asking me and you to pass along this notice:

"I thought you might be interested, or you can pass along to PFAC members or other patient and family members you think might be interested."

Virtual PFE Network Meeting:  Please Join Us on Wednesday, April 16 at 4:00 p.m. EDT.

Patient and family engagement (PFE) is a critical element in improving patient safety and reducing harm.  Consumers, patients, families and patient advisors, as well as providers of care, have a role to play. They must be supported to ensure integration of PFE into all patient care. Please join us on Wednesday, April 16, from 4:00 – 5:00 p.m. EDT for the Patient and Family Engagement (PFE) Network Meeting.

This meeting of the PFE Network will provide an opportunity to convene the group in conversation about patient and family engagement. We will recap the PFE work that is under way as a part of the Partnership for Patients, and discuss priorities to move forward. We will also seek input from you about needed training sessions and other resources that would be useful. More information can be found in the PFE Network Meeting Flyer by visiting this link. We hope you will join us, and please invite friends and colleagues who may be interested.To register, please visit: Virtual PFE Network Meeting.
