Patient-Centered Care – with the Picker
Institute at the helm – is becoming a transformational MOVEMENT
that will touch the lives millions worldwide.
In much the same way that the environmental
movement changed the way we all view our planet --- with your help,
the Patient-Centered Care Movement will create a new healthcare
paradigm – a new context for “viewing, consuming and
delivering” healthcare ---- all done “Through the Patient’s
Eyes.” |
How your Contribution
will be used at the Picker Institute
Over the past 2 decades the Picker Institute has conducted groundbreaking
research and established the foundations of the emerging international
Patient-Centered Healthcare movement.
The research, the surveys, and the promotion of best practices
have all been accomplished in the past through private funding.
But we have gone as far as we can alone. To take the Patient-Centered
Care Movement to the next level – we need your help.
Your contribution, and any “match” that your employer
may provide, goes directly to fund Programs – no administrative
overhead will come out of your Employee/Employer matching contribution.
100% of your contribution to the Picker Institute will be used
to fund:
o Ongoing Patient-Centered Healthcare Research
o Grants for New & Innovative Research
o Pilot Programs & Demonstration Grants for “Best Practice”
Models
o Recognition Awards for “Best Practice” Models and
Leadership
o Education Programs for Hospital Staff and Physicians worldwide |

The Future of the Patient-Centered Care –
THE MOVEMENT
The Picker Institute is at a turning point – it is evolving
beyond its groundbreaking roots in patient-centered healthcare research
and survey instrument development, to become an organization that
directly provides the resources and tools that medical providers
need to truly transform their Health Care Delivery System.
The Picker Institute not only provides technical skills, scientific
knowledge, and a rigorous academic approach to the patient-centered
healthcare field, it also provides much needed Leadership.
