Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
Ideal candidates for participation would include patients and care partners who are interested in contributing their experiences to improve health system practices.
✕Less likely to help
Patients who are not engaged in or interested in health system research or improvement may not receive direct benefits from this initiative.
What this research studies
This research focuses on establishing an Administrative Core that will lead and coordinate the Dartmouth Learning Health System's Embedded Scientist Training and Research Center. It aims to develop future leaders in patient-centered outcomes research and comparative effectiveness research by prioritizing the expertise of patients, care partners, and clinical teams. The core will facilitate the recruitment and training of a diverse group of scientists, ensuring they are equipped with the necessary skills to conduct impactful research. Through tailored training plans and experiential learning, these scientists will engage in projects that aim to improve health system operations and patient care.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could enhance the quality of patient care by training leaders who can effectively integrate patient perspectives into health system improvements.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is innovative in its specific focus on training and community engagement, similar initiatives in health systems have shown promise in improving patient outcomes.
