PXPs are former patients and family members who have lived experience at NYGH. The presentation will cover scope of the role, recruiting and onboarding approach, and impact. There will be a focus on increasing the diversity of the PXP cohort through a novel recruiting approach that utilizes Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) principles.
