There are less than 6 weeks to go until the 7th Southern
Institute for Health Informatics Conference, to be held at the University
of Portsmouth on Friday 30th September 2005.
As usual, we have a wide range of speakers representing local and
national points of view.
From "Connecting for Health" we have Jan Dowsett (National
Clinical Lead for Allied Health Professions) and Di Millen (Head of
Informatics).
From the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement (formerly the
Modernisation Agency) we have Hugh Rogers talking about making systems
(in the widest sense) more reliable.
The full list of speakers can be found on the website (URL
below).
The conference is aimed at healthcare professionals, senior managers and
system developers both within the NHS and in companies supplying products
and services to it. Others with interests in health informatics will also
find plenty to hear and talk about.
The cost of early registration (bookings made before 1st September) is
only £85 (with discounts for multiple attendees from the same
organisation), which includes lunch. Booking can be made online and we
now are able to accept credit card bookings.
