Patient Perspective: Exploring Patient Values and Preferences

Patient Perspective: Exploring Patient Values and Preferences

The CTFPHC is excited to introduce the first Patient Perspective to accompany its Prevention in Practice series.  This Patient Perspective is written by Cathy Telfer, a retired educator who lives and volunteers in Chatham-Kent, Ontario. Cathy is also a volunteer author of The Canadian Cancer Society monthly newsletter column “Concerning Cancer”. In this Patient Perspective, Cathy shares her personal story and practical advice to help guide both primary care practitioners and patients in the process of exploring patient values and preferences.

The Patient Perspective: Exploring Patient Values and Preferences is available in the January 2018 Issue of Canadian Family Physician.
