Seattle Children’s Patient Reported Outcomes Program
The goal of the Seattle Children’s Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO) Program is to bring the patient and family voice into the improvement work we do at our hospital. Patients and families can participate in our program’s Quality of Care Evaluation (QCE) surveys. We partner with different teams across Seattle Children’s hospital and clinics to collect survey information from patients and families to improve care. Our surveys ask important questions to capture:
- How to improve the quality of care that patients and families receive?
- How do patients and families feel about specific tests, treatments or therapies?
- Do certain tests, treatments or therapies improve outcomes that are meaningful to patients and families?
We can share anonymous information from these surveys with quality improvement teams who can track these data over time to see if they are improving care in the eyes of patients and families.
Patients and families can also participate in our program’s research study. This means that we store patient and family survey responses in a database that researchers can use in the future so they can answer important questions how best to deliver care and which care improves patient health outcomes.
