Why is Patient Engagement Important in Epidemiology?
Engaging patients is crucial for several reasons:
Data Accuracy: Active patient participation ensures that the data collected is accurate and reflective of real-world scenarios. Compliance: When patients are engaged, they are more likely to adhere to treatment plans and preventive measures. Trust: Engaged patients are more likely to trust public health initiatives and recommendations. Empowerment: It empowers patients to take control of their health, leading to better outcomes.
