😏Clinical trials need committed partners, not fleeting flings. Forget transactional tactics and empty brochures. 💍Let's build trust and real engagement! Here's how: ✅Long-term partnerships: Foster a collaborative environment where patients are valued throughout the trial process. ✅Transparency is key: Share information openly, answer questions honestly, and create a space for open dialogue. ✅Empowerment through education: Provide clear, accessible information about the trial, potential risks, and benefits. Here's the truth: Patient engagement in clinical trials shouldn't be a one-and-done approach. It's about building commitment rooted in trust, respect, and genuine understanding. #ClinicalTrials #PatientEngagement #clinicalresearch

As a nurse practitioner, I always felt strongly about the importance of patient advocacy, but this was cemented for me after my breast cancer diagnosis in 2020. The involvement of patient advocacy when designing healthcare innovation is vital, particularly in clinical trial design.

🔍 Patient Recruitment Strategy Tip 🔍 Effective patient recruitment is crucial for a successful clinical trial. While utilizing social media, community outreach, and partnerships with healthcare providers are excellent tools once a trial is acquired, consider taking a proactive approach. Build a research database of potential participants before opening a trial at your clinical site. This allows you to establish relationships with these participants in advance. Send out weekly newsletters to educate them on clinical research, fostering trust and engagement. #ClinicalResearch #PatientRecruitment #ResearchDatabase #Healthcare #ClinicalTrials #PatientEngagement

Are you patient INTEGRATED or just patient centred? I had an incredible time at Patients As Partners in Clinical Research Community News EU 2024. It was great to meet so many passionate people and hear the work they’re doing to advocate for patients in pharma. My main takeaway was that it’s not enough to be patient-centric. The patient perspective should be heard and acknowledged at each step of design and delivery. This is the key to producing meaningful work and outcomes. What can this look like? 1. Sending regular emails to research participants to update them on progress and share relevant news/ insights 2. Having internal patient boards that you consult on a regular, longitudinal basis 3. Have a mindset to give and not take from patients. Patients are people first and we must always remember that! Above all, we must remember to ‘mind the gap’, in the words of Xoli Belgrave . Consider barriers to participation, particularly those from under-served groups. #patientsaspartnerseu24 #patientvoice #patientadvocacy
