Partnering with Consumers in Research
At the heart of successful research translation are strong and productive partnerships. Partnership with health consumers and community can contribute greatly to research – ensuring research addresses the realities and needs of those using healthcare services, fast-tracking the implementation of the research findings into practice and improving health outcomes.
See below for a selection of training on how to build and maintain these effective relationships.
