The first version of the scale contained 51 items divided into three domains: (1) Respondents' characteristics; (2) the organisation's willingness to implement patient engagement; and (3) the organisation's ability to implement patient engagement.
Following Weiner's theory, the second domain was designed to assess the organisation's willingness to implement patient engagement and included 14 items reflecting the different aspects of patient engagement (at the individual and collective levels) (e.g. 'Informing patients about their condition or potential health issues').
The third domain was designed to assess the organisation's ability to implement patient engagement, in terms of tasks (9 items, e.g. 'Developing a shared organisational vision for patient engagement'), resources (10 items; e.g. 'Expertise in patient engagement'), and situational factors (7 items; e.g. 'Alignment of patient engagement with organisational priorities').
Most participants 83-999%) considered that it would be 'important' or 'very important' to include all 14 items when assessing an organisation's willingness to implement patient engagement.
There are insufficient resources to implement expansive public engagement strategies in all contexts of the health system and in every wait list management initiative.
Even if extensive public engagement throughout an entire health system is not practical, decision makers should strive to implement some degree of public engagement - public engagement is not an all-or-none phenomenon.
To build continued support at local level, it may be essential to implement clear guidelines of engagement, code of conduct and basic support like safety gear, group insurance for the period of their engagement.

Ban was South Korea's foreign minister from 2004 to 2006, helping to implement a policy of engagement with North Korea, before taking the top job at the United Nations.
Gamification needs to address all four phases of the user life-cycle: Think about leveraging game mechanics to facilitate and graduate users along each specific phase of the user experience: 1) new user onboarding (gamification is an excellent way to implement interactive tutorials); 2) user engagement; 3) conversion of free users to paid (or opt-in data sharing); 4) retention of power users.
