CFHI & CPSI is seeking two Patient Partners to complement its existing team of dynamic staff and network of partners. Working collaboratively with the Patient Partnerships and Engagement team and others across CFHI & CPSI, the Patient Partner will act as a key team member to advise, mentor and coach staff and other patient partners to embed meaningful and consistent engagement practices across the organization and within our programs of work.

Be a part of an exciting team.
The Patient Partner will bring their experience and expertise as a patient partner across the health system. As a Patient Partner, you will:
Work collaboratively to develop and embed a consistent approach for engagement that aligns and puts action to the guiding principles for engagement.
Lead the ongoing growth of CFHI & CPSI’s network of patient partners, supporting the development of structures, including ways to manage the network of patient partners, and recruitment and orientation approaches.
Help to diversify and broaden CFHI & CPSI’s reach with patient partners, with attention paid to issues of equity, diversity and inclusion to ensure a wide range of patient perspectives and engagement approaches that are fit for purpose.
Mentor and coach CFHI & CPSI teams and patient partners as they work together on program activities.
Provide ongoing capacity development opportunities that enable and support the ‘how-to’s of meaningful engagement practices across CFHI & CPSI that are consistent with our guiding principles for engagement.
Develop, in collaboration with others, organizational guidance documents and policies to support patient engagement and partnership activities.
Foster strong relationships and collaboration with Patients for Patient Safety Canada and their network in engagement activities.

Lived experience as a patient or caregiver interacting with health care providers and the health system.
