We are conducting several focus groups to identify information needs and information seeking behavior of cancer patient and their families. These focus groups will take place in King County, WA from December 2019 - March 2020.
We are looking for individuals with community health education background to help us facilitate these focus groups. You must be able to travel to Whatcom and Skagit Counties, WA for this project. Each focus group will have 5-8 participants and is expected to last about 1 to 1.5 hours.
Depending on your experience and background, you will be expected to support various tasks including note taking, facilitating the discussion, transcribing, researching, data entry, and evaluation.
There may be a possibility to do many of these tasks remotely. You will be required to do the human subject research training before you start working on this project (if you haven't already.)
