2. Mission Statement
The Stanford Adult CF Patient & Family Advisory Council (CF-PFAC) provides feedback to and partners with members of the healthcare team to improve the patient and family experiences and care at Stanford Health Care and in The Cystic Fibrosis Center at Stanford including pediatric, transitional and adult care at Lucile Packard Children’s and Stanford University Hospital.

3. Cystic Fibrosis Memorial Space
Purpose: To have a spot within Stanford dedicated to those we have lost to CF
Status: Instead of a space, a piece of art in the hospital will have an associated plaque dedicated to those CF patients we have lost. A benefactor has generously provided the required funds, and work is being done on finalizing artwork selection
Next Steps: Complete work with Stanford Patient Relations Services.

4. Journey to Transplant
Purpose: To detail the journey from evaluation, being listed and ultimately receiving a bilateral lung transplant.
Status: Under review for final publish.
Next Steps: Project complete

5. Stanford Hospital and Clinics Patient Encounters
Purpose: Capture anonymous stories from patients on interactions with healthcare professionals, both positive and negative, which can be used as a teaching tool for caregivers.
Status: Stories have been shared with Stanford PFAC and there is interest in expanding this concept within Stanford
Next Steps: Identify opportunity and best approach to expand concept within Stanford Hospital.

6. Virtual Clinic
Purpose: Promote use of virtual tools to improve quality of healthcare for CF patients.
Status: FEV1 study showed that patients could support activities associated with virtual healthcare and would see benefits from doing so. This concept is being adopted by other groups so it will happen.
Next Steps: Looking for next opportunity to pilot this concept, ideally with a partner

7. Information Sheet on Masks
Purpose: Develop information pamphlet on appropriate selection and usage of masks based on health status and need.
Status: Available for patients
Next Steps: Project Complete

8. Bodywork and CF
Purpose: Research how bodywork like massage and chiropractic can help relieve CF symptoms, by talking to people with expertise in the field, and also interviewing CF patients. Bring together information for the CF community about easy ways to incorporate bodywork into their medical regimen.
Status: Reached out to several professionals with interest in the subject, and currently compiling research on how massage helps people with CF
Next Steps: Interview professionals and CF patients, and compile research into a document resource for CF patients at clinic.
