Befriending the Community (Healthcare Community Partnerships) Presenting Title: "Thank You for Including Us": Research as Collaborative Care in the Community
In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the pivotal role research plays in fostering holistic care within community settings. This presentation explores the concept of research as collaborative care and advocates for the integration of research practices with community-based care initiatives. Based on key examples across our research projects and initiatives, befriending the community is about understanding needs of various stakeholders, promoting involvement in healthcare interventions, encourage patient/ person-centeredness, as well as empower marginalized communities. Ultimately, this presentation highlights the importance of reimagining research as a tool for compassionate and contextually relevant care within diverse community settings. |
