Starting on 7th July 2009

Opening times 10am

Venue Northumbria University, Newcastle

A Good Governance Institute and Institute of Healthcare Management Event

NHS organisations increasingly need to make sound, fair and transparent decisions in regard to what treatment will and will not be funded, and to explain why. Patients and clinicians expect NHS care to encompass the best, and these workshops will help participants understand the elements to better practice decision making in regard to funding treatment options. Getting this right is an essential element to the World Class Commissioning process.

The product of these workshops will be a template that will help NHS bodies make better decisions about how care services can be organised, and crucially focus on best practice in the fair, defendable limiting of treatment options.

Organised by the GOOD GOVERNANCE INSTITUTE, in partnership with the INSTITUTE OF HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT, these workshops are part of our commitment to providing sound, practical support to NHS clinicians and managers. Taking the example of diabetes care the aim is that these workshops produce generalisable materials to improve the standard of decision making and taking in the NHS.

This event is supported by an education grant from Bristol-Myers Squibb and sanofi-aventis.
