Nurses' Contributions to Fostering Successful Patient Engagement

Please join us for this one-of-a-kind two-day national consensus-building conference to foster successful patient engagement. The goal of this conference is to focus attention on the roles and strategies nurses can employ to strengthen the partnership among nurses and patients, as patients and families engage with the health care system to achieve the best health outcomes possible for themselves.This conference is designed for attendees to interactively engage with speakers and consumers to acquire knowledge and skills for implementation upon return to their own work settings.

This conference is for nurses who work in all settings and at all levels of care. Hosted by the Nursing Alliance for Quality Care with financial support from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)*, all attendees will also provide feedback to a newly developed national white paper on nurses' contributions to patient engagement, using a consensus process that identifies the best approaches, practices, strategies and policies to foster successful engagement of patients and families with the health care system.

Plenary and educational break-out sessions will include nationally recognized speakers in patient engagement, patient activation, shared decision-making, informed medical consent, consumer and nursing understanding of genetic and genomic testing, development of decision aids, family participation in shift changes and rounds, and other approaches to enhance attendee's own engagement with the patient. Attendees are expected to acquire knowledge for driving change within their own health care systems to increase responsiveness to the individual needs and preferences of the patients served. Poster abstracts of best practices and innovative approaches are being accepted for an evening poster/networking session during the conference.
