Taking the theory and making it practical

This series of one-day highly informative and practical events are for Allied Health Professionals and with Allied Health Professionals.

The events are an opportunity for Allied Health Professionals (AHPs) from across the region to plan how to implement national policy locally.

Who should come?

Clinicians and team leaders, including:
art therapists, chiropodists, clinical managers, dieticians, drama therapists, music therapists, occupational therapists, orthoptists, orthotists, physiotherapists, podiatrists, prosthetists, radiographers, and speech and language therapists.

Clinicians and team leaders delivering care directly to patients and wanting to improve services will find this day invaluable as it explores how national policy initiatives (such as the Darzi Next Stage Review, world class commissioning and information management) fit together and how clinicians with knowledge of these initiatives can successfully improve services.
