About the project
For patients, digital access to their mental health notes is a democratic right based on the assumption that knowledge of what is noted about their health condition and treatment will increase codetermination and contribute to empowering the patient as a citizen of society.
Objectives
Access to mental health notes potentially opens the opportunity for both facilitation and limitation of patient-therapist collaboration. There is scarce knowledge on positive as well as unintended negative effects of this access. The goal of the project is to provide knowledge on how digitally accessible health notes may influence on the working alliance between patients and therapists during treatment.
