Patient First will return to London’s ExCeL in November this year. With seven conference theatres hosting industry leading content, social and networking events, and the largest sourcing floor in patient safety, Patient First is unmissable for anyone involved in the improvement of patient care nationwide. The conference aims to support both those operating within the NHS and independent health care sectors and provide opportunities for practical advice needed to create action for change. Last year there was a strong front line audience with almost 3,500 delegates.

The Health Foundation are delighted to be supporting the event once again and offer Q members access to attend the event for free.

Q will be exhibiting at the conference and we will be talking to people about Q and what it aims to achieve. There will be a space on our stand for members to have conversations away from the hustle and bustle of the event – perhaps a coffee or two on us. We are also looking at hosting huddles and interested in these being member-led, so let us know if you want to volunteer.

Penny Pereira, Programme Director of Q from Health Foundation and Jo Vigor, Senior Development Advisor from NHS Improvement, will be delivering a plenary threatre session: Is the way you, your team and your organisation learn keeping pace with what you want to achieve? This session will draw on some of the theory around learning we are exploring over the coming months and presenting at ISQuA and Leaders in Healthcare.

If you are attending Patient First, get in touch with the team so we can arrange to meet up. If you are already speaking at the conference – let us know and we can help promote your session.
