The Department of Health has worked with 21 pilot sites during 2005/06 in order to better understand the challenges and along with data collection and Local Delivery Plans have helped identify some of the key areas that need to be tackled. This conference will give you the opportunity to learn about some of this work and its practical application.
The NHS Confederation is running this free-of-charge event on behalf of the Department of Health. Numbers are limited to three delegates per organisation.
