SUPPORTING PEOPLE AND ENHANCING ACCESS

Abbott has a proud history of helping people live fuller lives by collaborating with patients, patient associations and international patient association federations. At Abbott in Ireland, we build on that commitment by partnering with patient associations for many different diseases.

Working With Patient Associations

Patient associations provide valuable information and support to the people we serve, especially patients and those who care for them. We share many values and goals with patient associations, such as providing people with better information on diseases and improving treatment and services to best manage their healthcare needs. We can support these associations in helping people understand and manage their diseases.

Working together, we learn about the health issues that concern people and look for the best ways to address them in partnership with the patient associations. By building long-term relationships, we also promote dialogue about healthcare issues and seek ways to ensure top-quality healthcare.
