Empowering Patients: My journey of becoming an EUPATI Patient Expert!

In the past week, my journey to becoming an EUPATI Patient Expert has been enlightening and empowering. Here’s a brief overview of my recent experiences and insights shared on LinkedIn.

Commitment to Learning

I enrolled in the EUPATI Patient Expert Training to deepen my understanding of Health Technology Assessment (HTA) and how patients can effectively contribute to this process.

This training is crucial for enhancing communication between patients and healthcare professionals.

Completion of Fast Track Training

I recently completed the Fast Track Training course on Health Technology Assessment organized by EUCAPA .

This program has significantly enriched my knowledge about evaluating the medical, social, economic, and ethical implications of healthcare interventions, which is vital for advocating for patient-centred care.

Continuous Growth

My passion for education drives me to continuously seek knowledge that empowers me to advocate effectively for rare diseases and pediatric cancer solutions.

This journey is not just about personal growth; it’s about enhancing my ability to collaborate with healthcare professionals and stakeholders to make informed decisions that impact patients' lives.

Also, this journey has been empowering, equipping us with the knowledge and skills to advocate for patient rights and involvement in clinical research, and health technology assessment.

Together, we’re making a difference!

What’s Next?

A huge thank you to everyone who supported us along the way – trainers, my fellow participants, and my family who supported me all along the way.

Stay tuned as we put our new skills into action and continue to our patient engagement!
