Summary
Patient and public involvement (PPI) in healthcare education is enhanced by supportive relationships and sufficient time, rather than formal training. These factors increase PPI members' confidence and autonomy, improving educational decision-making.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Professional Education
- Patient and Public Involvement (PPI)
Background:
- Limited detail exists on patient roles and autonomy in healthcare professional education publications.
- This study investigates factors influencing PPI in a university healthcare education setting.
Purpose of the Study:
- To detail factors promoting or hindering patient and public involvement (PPI) in healthcare professional education.
- To identify the types of activities undertaken by PPI members.
Main Methods:
- Mapping PPI activities against a framework for PPI in healthcare professional education.
- Conducting semi-structured interviews with PPI group members to explore motivators, enablers, and barriers.
Main Results:
- PPI members engaged in various activities but received limited training and were infrequently involved in planning.
- Key themes influencing PPI were individual characteristics, university organization, relationships, time, and perceived impact.
Conclusions:
- Supportive relationships and adequate time, not formal training, empower PPI members.
- Enhancing PPI involves fostering relationships, providing time, and making small process changes for greater equity in educational decision-making.
