Resources & Materials
To support good practice, PCIG develops resources based on published literature and consultation with our members and stakeholders. Here you’ll find our resources to support patient participation and patient-based evidence. There’s also a tab for <Other Useful Resources> of our partners and friends and our <Archive> which contains older resources that are less often used or not updated.
