The inclusion of patients in their own healthcare has been described as the ‘blockbuster drug of the century.’1 However, they need access to easy-to-understand, relevant, and engaging information and support to do this. Providing access to effective patient education and support builds trust with patient communities, enables informed decision-making, improves treatment adherence and self-management, and improves patient satisfaction and outcomes.
