Summary

Team: Office of the Chief Clinical Officer
Contact for this event: nhscfh.events@nhs.net
Description: The second annual conference for allied health professionals (AHPs), healthcare scientists (HCSs), pharmacists and psychologists is aimed at those who are interested in the ways in which informatics can enable us to provide better safer clinical services.

We aim to make the day a participative and valuable opportunity to meet and network with other healthcare practitioners experiencing and developing systems and technology in practice.

Interactive workshops will include the following topics:

- Transforming community services: telehealth and mobile working
- Local leadership and making systems work for patients
- High quality care for all: use of evidence based practice
- Service improvement: informing commissioning decisions
- Access and choice: enabling knowledge about services

Senior representatives from the Department of Health, NHS Connecting for Health (NHS CFH) and the NHS Information Centre will address delegates to connect current policy with practice.

Those attending will be encouraged to share examples of emerging best practice, see what progress is currently being made and how IT can and does support innovation in practice.

The event has been planned collaboratively by members of the NHS CFH National Advisory group which includes professional body IM&T representatives. They have been keen to include content that is not constrained to NHS CFH systems and services so that it encompasses the wider informatics agenda and creates an environment for sharing practice.

The conference is free to all delegates and includes lunch and refreshments. However, travel expenses are excluded.
