Patient and Family Advisory Council

Moffitt's Patient and Family Advisory Program (PFAC) was established in 2005 to bring the patient and family perspective into everything we do. The program is dedicated to strengthening collaboration between patients and family members and the health care team so as to enhance Moffitt’s ability to deliver the highest standard of safe, comprehensive and compassionate health care for all. 

The Patient and Family Advisory Council is facilitated by patient and family advisor co-chairs who serve two-year terms. The council also includes key Moffitt Cancer Center administrators and staff members.   

The council serves as a "voice" for patients who have received cancer treatment at Moffitt and their family members. It is imperative for the council’s membership to reflect the patients we serve. Patients and family members on the council work alongside doctors, nurses, other health care providers and administrators to: 

• Provide information about needs and concerns 
• Work with staff to make changes that impact patients and families 
• Participate in the design of patient care areas 
• Assist in the planning of new patient-related programs 
• Serve as a resource on a wide variety of issues, services and policies
