This is a crucial step towards improving the lives of our 8p heroes. We welcome providers of any speciality.
Echo bridges the care gap between community professionals, patients and their families.
Project 8p has joined forces with ECHO Autism to facilitate remote learning and collaboration amongst a worldwide network of 8p providers. Leveraging the capabilities of ECHO, Project 8p will harness the power of technology to disseminate knowledge, empowering professionals in the 8p community to provide high-quality care to individuals with chromosome 8p disorders. This partnership also serves to advance the development of a standard of care for 8p Heroes.
Professionals receive specific de-identified case guidance using a convenient, interactive, web-based, small-group format.
Knowledge-sharing networks create a learning loop:
Community providers learn from specialists.
Community providers learn from each other.
Specialists learn from community providers as best practices emerge.
The Project 8p ECHO Program welcomes all professionals involved in the care and support of individuals with chromosome 8p disorder. This includes but is not limited to: pediatricians, geneticists, neurologists, cardiologists, neuropsychologists, genetic counselors, speech therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, nutritionists, educators, and nurses.
Whether you’re a seasoned specialist or have acquired a new patient, the Project 8p ECHO Program provides a collaborative platform where expertise is shared to enhance the lives of 8p Heroes.
