Experts by Experience in Patient and Public Involvement: What does it mean?
About this event
This event is open to members of the public, patients, carers and researchers.
Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) is research carried out ‘with’ or ‘by’ members of the public rather than ‘to’, ‘about’ or ‘for’ them. Experts by Experience are service users or carers who are experts through lived experience of illness or services. Experts by Experience are one type of patient or public member that can contribute to PPI.
We invite you to take part in this interactive event, sponsored by the Health Research Board, which will explore the concept of Experts by Experience in patient and public involvement, what this means, as well as distinctions from, and overlaps with, other terms. The development of recommendations to assist in accessing and recruiting Experts by Experience in patient and public involvement will also be explored.
Tickets are free of charge, but places are limited.
You must have access to or have downloaded Zoom in order to attend this event.
