Impressive speaker line-up for HMI Conference 2012

Managers at the forefront of managing our healthcare services are all too familiar with the impact of the current fiscal situation on the resources available to them at a time when the demands on services are continuously increasing.

Despite the changes embraced  to date within the health services, the tension between conflicting demands remains as strong as ever.  The key question remains – can quality and services be enhanced when resources are being reduced?  The answer lies in the realms of productivity, system innovation and the optimisation of technology. Managers hold the key to shaping the health services of the  future.
