End Systemic Bottlenecks, Improve Patient Safety and Achieve Seamless Hospital-Wide Throughput

Why Attend Optimising Patient Flow 2011?

With the 4 hour target still a priority, is your hospital fully equipped to lower waiting times?

Optimising Patient Flow 2011 will bring together Patient Flow Managers, Bed Managers, Operations Directors, Nursing Directors, Outpatients Managers, Clinical Directors, and Government executives to discuss strategies and practical aspects of patient flow management.

Make the most of this opportunity to share ideas and to network with colleagues who share common challenges and who, like you, are eager to develop new and innovative strategies to improve patient flow.

How are your Peers Overcoming Patient Flow Bottlenecks?

Are you under pressure to develop and deliver best practice for improving patient flow and under extreme pressure? Worried about planning, lack of resources, change management and how to ensure that communication channels run smoothly throughout your department?

Find out how your peers are overcoming these challenges so that you can make the right decisions to maximise your efficiency, and improve the healthcare of your patients.

The areas that will be covered at Optimising Patient Flow 2011 are:

  • Understanding the whole patient journey and being able to effectively map the process from admission to discharge
  • Improving communication and the flow of information between all stakeholders and departments internal and external to a hospital
