Patient and family engagement in rheumatology research

In this episode of Arthritis At Home, we are sharing the #CRArthritis interview with Ms. Meghan Pancucci, Dr. Michelle Batthish, and Dr. Karen Beattie. The trio talks about their workshop at the meeting, which is designed for researchers and family advocates who have an interest in engaging patients and families in rheumatology research. They talk about what family engagement in research means and its benefits for patients, health care providers, and researchers, and how families may be engaged with researchers in projects at different stages of the research life cycle. Additional learning resourcesMatching researchers’ needs and patients’ contributions: practical tips for meaningful patient engagement from the field of rheumatologyPatient Engagement in Research Scale ACE Advocacy: Participate in research
