Digital Care Surgery - Innovating for Change
Date
Event Location
Event Description
Who should attend: Care professionals, Local Authority and NHS commissioners, social care associations, policy makers, third sector, academia, digital and creative innovators and entrepreneurs and businesses
Technology is rapidly changing the world around us and our expectations; however it is still early days in realising the potential that digital has to transform care. To date attention has focused largely on telehealth and telecare and the use of devices such as personal alarms and health-monitoring equipment to raise alerts and monitor vital signs such as blood pressure and blood glucose levels. Less attention has been given to the use of technology and how online services can be made more purposeful to those with care responsibilities and for those that manage care at a professional level.
We believe that by enabling greater collaboration across different disciplines and sectors and inspiring people to do things differently, we will create a step change in how we turn knowledge into ideas and ideas and data into societal, technological and healthcare solutions – real customer oriented approaches to innovation to improve the future of care and in turn the quality of life for citizens and patients.
Join us for this unique one day event - where we do just that!
This digital care surgery is bringing together talented digital innovators, healthcare professionals, third sector and academia to stretch the boundaries of digital innovation in care. A knowledge sharing and networking opportunity, it will give you the chance to hear some fascinating insights on the disruptive nature of digital technologies and use of data to transform care and hear from practitioners at the forefront of what this looks like in practice. There will also be smaller working group sessions to look at some early innovations and business ideas, which will make the most of the audience’s specialised and user knowledge to help adapt, validate, challenge and refine these ideas through a Dragons Den style approach and in doing open eyes to new ways of doing things.
