Our most recent podcast guest is Anca Toma, the Executive Director of the European Patients Forum, which is a partner organisation of the PERISCOPE project.

In the context of PERISCOPE, the European Patients Forum conducted a survey to assess the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the welfare of patients with chronic diseases. The pandemic has posed significant challenges to patients, especially as healthcare services faced major disruptions and backlogs, and the hospital environment became less safe.

To discuss the results of the survey, we have a chat with Anca Toma. Read the full report here

Special acknowledgements to the authors of the report: Simon Ducarroz (INSERM), Juan Fernández (EPF), Emma Martinez (FEAM), and Timothy Yeung (CEPS) for their invaluable contributions to this important research endeavor.
