Patient empowerment and shared decision-making: the experience of the ADLIFE project | Rachelle Kaye

Rachelle Kaye, from Assuta Medical Centers & K-Tor Consulting Services in Israel, described the patient empowerment and shared decision-making tools developed in the ADLIFE project. Aiming at improving the quality of life of patients with advanced chronic diseases, the project has developed a digital platform that has three main roles. It (1) enables joint patient care planning and management, (2) facilitates shared decision making through explicit reminders to clinicians, and (3) provides patients and carers with educational materials and feedback tools (including symptom reporting, PROMs and PREMs). This digital platform is being piloted on different sites across Europe and associated countries.
