Environmental scan to identify outcomes for Consumer and Community Involvement in research and healthcare improvement

Active involvement of people with lived experience or patients (consumers) to improve healthcare services and health and medical research is fundamental to systemwide healthcare change. Known as Consumer and Community Involvement (CCI), this space is a rapidly advancing field and we are undertaking significant work to embed genuine, best practice CCI in research and health services to deliver value and improved outcomes to our community. This mixed methods project will involve scoping the grey and published literature for CCI evaluation outcomes with a focus on developing a library and core set. Interviews will support exploring existing measures and gain diverse perspectives of new measures needed. Components that are needed but do not currently exist will be co-designed.
