4. IPPOSI? Who?IPPOSI
A patient-led organisation
that works with patients,
government, industry,
& science to put patients at the
heart of health innovation
5. IPPOSI Priorities
20
Actively advocate for improved + equitable
patient access to Health Innovation
Promote meaningful patient involvement in
Health Research and Policy
7. Incorporating the patient voice
• Hierarchical Rhetoric
• ‘Walking the walk’ at the highest possible level
Challenges:
• Decision-makers never want to change their processes
• Patients are not trained in health policy, dialogue
• Many patient orgs are not focused on policy/R&D issues
“The perfect is the enemy of the good”
8. IPPOSI & The European Patients Academy
• EUPATI produces Expert Patients on
Medicines Research & Development
• Provides Training & Education
• Disseminates through national platforms
The project received support from the Innovative Medicines Initiative Joint Undertaking under grant agreement n° 115334, resources of which are composed of financial
contribution from the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) and EFPIA companies.

9. 18+ EUPATI National Platforms
• Bring all stakeholders together in countries
• Address educational needs in R&D
• Disseminate EUPATI’s training material
National platforms now established in:
AT, BE, FR, DE, IE, IT, LU, MT, PL, ES, CH, UK, DK,
SK, PT, NO, RO, GR
Additional platform initiatives ongoing in
Serbia, Brazil, Japan
10. Roles change as a result of EUPATI
course
- creating patient leaders

Data Quality
17. What we have learned…
• Trust is vital - patients must believe that their data is
secure and only used for the purposes they consented
to
• Equally, create the situation where patients are the
drivers of their data, ensuring it is utilised to improve
their health
18. What do we need to enable use (& re-use) of patient data?
• Good Education
• Legal Frameworks
• SOPs
• Framework of Engagement
Everyone to understand the potential
and know how to make the most of it
19. What would a framework of engagement for
use (& re-use) of patient data look like?
Engages
Empowers
Educates
Evaluates
Evolves
A unique framework that enables
structured, effective, meaningful,
ethical, innovative, and sustainable
patient engagement
(and demonstrates the ‘return’ on
this engagement for all players)

From Phase 1
My
healthcare
experiences
Healthcare
I am
confident in
My journey
through
healthcare
23. My healthcare experiences
• Staff communicate with me in a way that I understand.
• I have up-to-date information on my health condition(s), treatments, and available support
services.
• Staff help me to understand the choices and services available to me now and for my future
care.
• Healthcare staff listen to me so that they understand my world and what is important to me.
• I am treated with empathy, respect and dignity in all dealings with healthcare staff.
• In partnership with healthcare staff, I make choices based on what I prefer and my goals.
• If I choose, my information can be shared securely with relevant healthcare staff.
• I do not have to repeat myself each time I meet new healthcare staff involved in my care.
• I can contact the relevant healthcare staff to ask questions that are important to me and I get
timely responses to my questions.
• Decisions about my care include me as much as I want and involve my carers if I choose.
26. • Survey Live Sept-Oct. 2017
• Proof-of-Concept
• Producing data on patients’ experience of care when they use
more than one health service during this period
• Target:
• 1000 stories nationally, particularly in relation to older people
people with chronic conditions
• Channel through Integrated Care Programmes HSE
27. By end of 2017… By end of 2018…
A ‘tried and tested’ framework
• To hear a high volume of patients’
experiences through the online
survey
• To use data to influence service
design, delivery and improvement
of integrated care
• A qualitative and quantitative
evaluation of the proof of concept
within the context of the HSE;
Integration into ‘business as usual’
• Framework (incl. resource
implications) to be integrated into a
‘business as usual’ model
• Quality and Patient Safety Structures
at CHO level will be essential
• QID publication: ‘Quality and Safety
Committees; Guidance and resources’

29. The patient advocate perspective?
“You’re looking at the macro picture and
you have to, but somewhere out there are
all these microchips and we’re making up
the macro picture.”
“Are we just the collateral damage while
you all get some years to sort out this
business? If the Troika wanted it, you
would be doing it tomorrow.”

IPPOSI Round-table with Dept. of Health
May 2015
Editor's Notes
A patient-led platform that provides a structured way of facilitating interaction between patients, government, industry, science and academia to put patients at the heart of policy and medicines development. In pursuit of this we hold workshops, discussion groups, training days and conferences on policy, legislation and regulation around the development of new medicines, products, devices and diagnostics for unmet medical needs.
Regulators and funders are doing it!
The different levels in which Patient Organisations and patient representatives can get involved in the clinical trial process
These are examples of points in time when patient insights and engagement would be sought by multiple stakeholders
This is to demonstrate patient involvement is reality and is in practice, not some funky new idea that may be done in the future!
Health services in Ireland are including patient voices in decision making to a greater extent now than ever before. The HSE’s National Strategy for Service User Involvement 2008-2013, the National Patients Forum, the National Patient Experience Survey and the IPPOSI-led Patient Narrative project are examples. Furthermore, the Department of Health is working with IPPOSI and other relevant patient-led organisations in areas such as rare diseases, dementia and others.
Training required to get the expertise required to contribute to research & development projects
Context is how do you transform services towards what people want, when they want them.
Bearing this context in mind, IPPOSI will continue to represent patient interests in this key emerging area of healthcare through our meetings, consultations and events.

The Clinical Strategy & Programmes Division of the HSE initiated the Patient Narrative Project to partner with users of healthcare services in the design and delivery of these services.
The Patient Narrative Project is a three phase project to progress to partnership working
listened to the experiences of people who have had to use multiple health services over time or at one time and through the words of the service users and caregivers developed a set of statements that clearly articulate what users of the Irish health service expect from services and staff.
In addition a definition of person-centred co-ordinated care that is written not just for the experts, but for patients, people, families and carers
The goal is that the descriptors + definition of what good care and support that is centred around the needs and preferences of the service user/patient looks and feels like for people will be adopted nationally. They will be used to guide policy, strategy and design, and act as a guide to what teams at local levels should be aiming to achieve practically, in their efforts to integrate services around patient, family and carer needs.
There are three themes of descriptors:
‘Care for me’ focused on the direct relational experience with healthcare professionals.
‘Care I am confident in’ refers to the actual experience of care in terms of skills, quality, accountability and continuity of care.
‘Care in my journey through healthcare’ represents care that is holistic, accessible at a time needed and takes account of the world of the person and their carer beyond what was traditionally considered health care, but where health has an impact (e.g. education, working life)

IPPOSI, the Irish Platform for Patient Organisations, Science and Industry, led the first phase of the project. A UCD research team led by Dr Amanda Phelan carried out the research study which listened to the experiences of people who have had to use multiple health services over time or at one time and through the words of the service users and caregivers developed a set of statements that clearly articulate what users of the Irish health service expect from services and staff.

The experiences of patients, carers, and their organisations were translated into a definition of person-centred co-ordinated care that is written not just for the experts, but for patients, people, families and carers. 19

‘Care for me’ ‘focused on the direct relational experience with healthcare professionals.
‘Care I can reply on’ ‘refers to the actual experience of care in terms of skills, quality, accountability and continuity of care.
‘Care in my journey through healthcare’ ‘represents care that is holistic, accessible at a time needed and takes account of the world of the person and their carer beyond what was traditionally considered health care, but where health has an impact (e.g. education, working life)
My healthcare experiences: Direct relational experience with healthcare profs
Healthcare I am confident in: Actual experience of care in terms of skills, quality, accountability and continuity of care
My journey through healthcare: Three aspects: holistic care, coordination of care within and across services, and access to services when needed.
The statements and definition indicate that Irish health service users want to be empowered in a seamless journey through the health services, they want to take an active informed role in their care and to be treated as people not health conditions.
In addition they expect staff to live the values of the HSE; care, compassion, trust and learning within the workplace and their interactions
10,000 Voices in NI - 14,000 patients have now completed this survey
40 per county and 20 OP and 20 CC with the additional stories from the populations covered in Social Inclusion.
In addition to the collection of data the project will review the most effective and efficient means of stakeholder engagement in order that this can inform the project and business plan for longer term.
