We are hoping to learn about the participant experience and to evaluate the training program with 3 evaluation surveys for your community members to complete at different timepoints. Responses to these surveys will help iCON to improve the program, incorporate new content, and implement changes to the program for future use.

 

Evaluation Information Sheet (English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Panjabi)

This document provides an overview of the evaluation process and some additional information about the stages of evaluation, how participant privacy is being protected, and more. Please share this document with your participants.

 

Pre-Survey (English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Panjabi)

Please ask your participants complete this initial survey at the start of your first training session. This Pre-survey will ask you about your baseline knowledge of digital health literacy, your use and comfort in navigating online platforms, virtual visits with healthcare providers, and how you discern the quality of health information online.

 

Immediate Post Survey (English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Panjabi)

Please ask your participants to complete this survey immediately following your last training session. If possible, please allow 10 minutes at the end of your session for participants to complete the survey. This Post-survey will ask you for feedback about the training you have received. At the end of this survey, your participants will be able to request a certificate of participation.

 

3-Month Follow-Up Survey

Approximately 3 months following the end of your training session, the iCON research team will contact your participants who provided their contact information in the second survey and ask them to complete a follow up survey. You do not need to take any action to ask participants to complete this survey. We hope to learn if, and how, the learning sessions are improving participants’ digital health literacy and use of virtual technology.

Module 3: How to Talk to Your Healthcare Provider Using Virtual Care

 

Virtual healthcare is a rapidly growing area, especially during COVID-19 where staying at home can reduce anxiety and decrease risk.

In this session, we will explore the meaning of virtual care, discuss what can and cannot be done using virtual visits, and provide some resources to access care providers virtually.
