Our initiatives

Supporting patients through partnership: a collaborative approach to developing better medicines and enhancing patient journeys.

Our initiatives

At J&J, we believe in partnering with patients and caregivers. By seeing patients as our partners, we can understand how to better meet their needs and improve the patient’s health care journey. Patient engagement means collaborating and integrating the voice of the patient so we can improve all stages of a patients’ journey - from the time they begin having symptoms, until after recovery. Early, systematic, and frequent contact with patients has far-reaching advantages and we understand that engaged patients are better able to make informed decisions about their care.

It’s time to Talk Lung Cancer

Talk Lung Cancer has been developed with input from the lung cancer community to provide you with useful resources to support your journey and have informed conversations about your care.
