Invitation to share your recent hospitalization experience

• Do you have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Spondyloarthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis, Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis or Gout?
• Have you been hospitalized in Calgary for any reason in the past 3 months? 

Share your story of your recent hospital experience to help researchers understand why patients with arthritis may have to seek care in hospital.

Through one telephone interview, help the research team to understand:

• what led to the need for care in a hospital or urgent/emergency care setting, 
• what health services you may have tried to access to avoid this visit, and 
• any other health factors might have contributed to the event. 

Patients completing an interview receive a $50 gift card.

Your participation in this research study is entirely voluntary.
