🟣 LUPUS-ALERT is moving forward!
Thanks to the amazing collaboration between healthcare professionals and patients, we’ve now identified many potential vulnerabilities that can impact access to appropriate lupus care.
We want to extend a special thank you to all the lupus patients who responded to our call and shared the barriers patients may face: financial, social, linguistic, geographic…
🌟 Your contribution is helping to develop a tool that will systematically identify the vulnerabilities patients face. This is a wonderful step towards lupus care that is more holistic, equitable, personalised, and responsive to patients' real-life needs.
🔝 A huge thank you to Prof. Laurent Arnaud, Dr. Daniel Guimarães de Oliveira - Imunologia Clínica, Jeanette Andersen, and Zoe Karakikla-Mitsakou for their invaluable contributions and commitment to LUPUS-ALERT!
🌍 And a special thank you to the many physicians and patients who have come together to work on this project for the benefit of lupus patients.
🚀 #LupusAlert now moves into Step 2!!!
🔔 Stay tuned!
