Our patient communities did not grow to over 300,000 members by chance. They grew because, from the outset, we chose a unique approach: to meet patients' needs for easy access to and easy-to-understand information about clinical research. We offer members of our patient communities support and consultations with experienced research nurses before they sign up to participate in a clinical trial, not just offering a push-recruitment campaign. We also engage in ongoing dialogue with our members by providing them with content, newsletters and articles related to clinical research. All this is to help our members be well-informed and motivated to participate in clinical trials. This is how you build modern, active patient communities. #PatientEngagement #PatientVoices #JamesLindCare

Each year in the days before the American College of Emergency Physicians Scientific Assembly, Virginia’s 10 ACEP Councillors and those from 52 other chartered chapters gather to vote on a series of Resolutions under consideration by the College. These proposed policies call on ACEP to adopt a position or take an action, and if adopted, they become official policy to guide advocacy, education, and member services. Yet Resolutions also shed light on the issues at the center of emergency medicine practice today — from training and workforce pressures, to Medicaid funding, EMTALA protections, new technologies like AI, and the role of vaccines and public health. We spoke with Virginia ACEP Councillor Caroline Cox, MD, an emergency physician in Roanoke, who offered highlights of this insightful annual event. https://lnkd.in/ee-P2gVs
