How to Create High-quality Information Materials for Patients, Part 1: Checklist of Key Steps
As any advocate knows, an important task of a patient organization is to produce information materials for patients and their caregivers. This task is not as easy as it looks — after all, most of us advocates have not been trained in journalism or graphic arts or medicine.
We may wonder: What makes a brochure or a website text for patients successful? How can our patient advocacy organization ensure the quality of the patient resources we produce?
Advocacy 2.0: The Evolving Role of Advocates in Rare Cancers
What do you say when someone asks you what a patient advocate does?
If you asked me, I would answer from my own experience: Advocates work with patients and their families. We support people and we share information with them.
However, as important as these activities may be, there is so much more that we advocates can do.
Introducing Voices of Sarcoma: Let Your Voice Be Heard
Thirteen years ago, a handful of people touched by sarcoma were united by a common aim: to bring together sarcoma patient groups and enable them to express a collective voice in the healthcare world. Sarcoma Patients Euronet (SPAEN) was born.
This section of our website, our blog, is new. This blog aims to strengthen the global sarcoma community by giving the many voices of sarcoma a chance to be heard. We hope our member organisations and their members will gain benefit from it and see it as an opportunity to contribute as well. Voices of Sarcoma is for everyone to read and contribute to.
