The ORPRN Advisory Board (the Board) serves as the connection between and with primary care throughout the state of Oregon and the ORPRN faculty and staff at OHSU. They provide visioning and directionality to ORPRN and help steer the conversation about what matters to primary care practices and the communities they serve.
The Board is both reactive to proposals and ideas generated by ORPRN staff and research colleagues — answering questions, providing guidance, making suggestions, approving participation and assisting with recruitment, and proactive – bringing practice concerns, topic areas, and subjects of interest to ORPRN staff.
Specifically, Board members perform the following tasks:
- Participate in monthly, hour long phone meetings (currently 7 – 8 am the fourth Monday of the month)
- Participate in 1 or 2 in-person half day meetings each year
- Review 1 page summaries of proposed research to be done within ORPRN practices/communities
- Assess for appropriateness for primary care practices in Oregon
- Provide verbal feedback during phone meetings
- Vote to recommend/not recommend ORPRN participation
- Bring to ORPRN staff via email or during regular meetings ideas, concerns concerns and interests from their practice and community
