My Fundraising Page
Hello everyone! On June 23rd, I will be running the Boston 10k for Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Specifically, I am running to raise money for the PROVE center (https://prove.bwh.harvard.edu) , whose research focuses on amplifying the patient voice through innovation in the collection, analysis and use of patient-reported outcome measures.
You may be wondering….aren’t the symptoms, feelings, needs, priorities etc. of the patient automatically at the center of healthcare? Well, in the ideal world yes. But sometimes patients have different baseline assumptions and vocabularies than doctors and researchers. Additionally, there often aren’t tools to turn aggregated patient-experience data into something actionable. These gaps can result in the primary concerns of patients being overlooked or deprioritized unintentionally.
Healthcare (patient care and drug/device development) are moving more and more in this direction, but there is plenty of work still to be done! Patient-centric care = more impactful care for me, you, and our families.
