Background: Amidst the acceleration of digital health deployment in the province of Québec, the need to clarify the role of patients and caregivers was deemed essential to guide the deployment of telehealth strategies. A patient learning pathway (PLP) approach to patient and caregiver engagement was developed, containing knowledge, abilities, and skills mobilized by patients and caregivers at key moments of the life course with an illness, as well as emerging educational needs. Objective: The objective of the current paper is to present the innovative PLP approach to patient and caregiver engagement in telehealth by applying it to three medical specialties within the context of the Québec healthcare system: dermatology, oncology, and mental health/psychiatry. Methods: The PLP methodology is constituted of five chronological phases: 1) identification and engagement of main stakeholders; 2) exploration; 3) recruitment of patient and caregiver partners; 4) co-development of PLP first draft; and 5) validation and consensus building regarding competencies. Results: Three PLPs (dermatology, oncology, and mental health/psychiatry) have already been mapped using this participatory approach, showing that the proposed PLP approach to patient and caregiver engagement in telehealth is feasible. Conclusions: Mapping patient and caregiver competencies organized throughout patients' life course with an illness can lead to a highly operationalizable tool, which relevant stakeholders can use in a way that promotes patient self-management, shared decision-making, and empowerment. Innovation: The five-step PLP methodology developed proposes an innovative and structured approach to partnership with patients and caregivers in telehealth by outlining their roles throughout their life course with an illness. |
