PROMs

Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are self-reported measures of patient outcomes of care.

Our services

Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are self-reported measures that capture patients’ views of their health status, i.e., their outcomes of care.

The person receiving care is the expert in their own life with their own health condition. They must be included as a partner in care to ensure optimal management of their condition according to their values and preferences. To promote person-centred care, many health and social services professionals invite patients to express their views on their health condition. The use of questionnaires, completed by patients, is necessary to gather this information. The survey of PREMs and PROMs continues after care, in the home.

Our communities of practice

Patient partners community expériences

The expériences community includes patient partners actively involved in the governance of the patient partnership and strategy as well as directly in research teams. It brings together various members of the Québec health and social services network, including researchers. This initiative comes from the Partnership Axis of the Unité de soutien SSA Québec and the Centre of Excellence in Partnership with Patients and the Public (CEPPP).
