Check out what @KPWaResearch, KPNC and KPCO learned from 3 groups of people with chronic illnesses and social needs about what is most important to their health and wellbeing. And, their perspectives to align care to their personal values. Check out summary by @aberry85

As a dad of two daughters, this movie really hit home for me. I'm glad to see it has resonated with so many people.
FATHERHOOD has been the #1 movie in 82 countries! 61 million households are projected to have their Harts won over by @KevinHart4real and the film — from Sony Pictures & BRON Studios, and presented by Higher Ground Productions — in its first 4 weeks. That's a lot of Hart ❤️

I work with care teams and researchers @kpwashington on asking about people's stories and values to integrate into care. I agree, "We have to engage in dynamic relationships with patients, we have to put the symptoms in the context of people's lives. " nytimes.com/2021/02/25/well/…

Virtual clinical trials could make medical research cheaper, more efficient and more equitable — offering state-of-the-art research opportunities to people who otherwise wouldn’t have the time or resources to take advantage of them. nyti.ms/3uj1fxx

Home care workers deserve our attention & support. During this crisis as they are "...navigating difficult decisions about risks to their own health (by working) and finances (by not working) and their concerns about the effects of those decisions on care recipients."
Just as #COVID19 has accelerated other aspects of medical and social progress, it is time to use the pandemic as an opportunity to engage in social justice for home care workers ja.ma/31fEVY9

Check out and listen to my colleagues about their patient-partnered research! I learn so much from Neely and David, I am lucky to work with them.
Watch patient co-PI @neelywilliam's and co-PI @davearterburn's new video, "Research for the rest of us," featuring the PCORnet Bariatric Study; produced by @KPWaResearch: kpwashingtonresearch.org/new…

Truly impressive PCORI-funded patient-centered research on implementation of bariatric surgery, left ventricular artery disease, and IMPACT community health worker model into real-world clinical and community settings. @KPWaResearch #PCORI2019
Studies have shown that it typically takes 17 years for the results of a randomized controlled trial to reach clinical practice. How are these implementation projects promoting the uptake of CER study results in the real-world? pcori.org/live #PCORI2019

What an honor to attend my first PCORI conference and celebrate Joe Selby's retirement. I was in awe of his research and genuine down-to-earth nature when he was the Director at Kaiser Permanente Division of Research! @PCORI

"[In a study] before using the board, the 50 patients who participated rated their level of anxiety as an average of 64 on a scale of 0-100. After using the board, their average self-reported anxiety level dropped to 44, a reduction of 31%." cnn.com/2017/07/12/health/sp…

Can anyone recommend a great user-center design-qualitative research workshop? There are some great classes on these two disciplines but taught separately. I want to find a blended course for health services researchers!
