Episode 36: Preparing Patients for Precision Medicine - Collaboration with the Rheumatology Nurses Society

Welcome to AiArthritis Voices 360, the official Talk Show for the International Foundation for Autoimmune & Autoinflammatory Arthritis (AiArthritis). 

 

In this episode, Event Host, AiArthritis CEO and person living with AiArthritis diseases, Tiffany Westrich-Robertson, is joined by patient Co-Host, Katie Steele. They speak with Carrie Beach, RN, from the Rheumatology Nurses Society (RNS) about our collaboration to improve patient voices in education and research (featuring our award-finalist Preparing Patients for Precision Medicine project).  This is an excellent example of how patients and rheumatology professionals sit "at the table" to discuss projects - because during the conversation we actually came up with a new spin on the collaboration!  Listen to learn more about our work together to increase patient (and nurse) education about precision medicine and how YOU can join us!

 

We also start the episode discussing the patient-nurse relationship and how that window of opportunity while we have the nurses' ear could be better utilized.

Between May 16 - 20th, we took our AiArthritis Voices 360 Talk Show LIVE, to help teach more people who we are, what we do, and how we impact the lives of those affected by AiArthritis Diseases while honoring the 450 million people worldwide living with our diseases. It also served as the starting line for our 2020 fundraising efforts. This episode is an excerpt from one of those episodes.
