What is the conference about?
Keynote speakers and workshops will offer insight and practical advice on a
range of topical issues in patient information provision and policy, from
design and information audit, to using different media and providing
information to people with disabilities. The conference will also allow you
to share your expertise and network with people sharing similar challenges.
The conference is for anyone concerned with patient information, clinical
governance and promoting patient involvement, whether you are working in the
acute sector, the community, or a voluntary or independant organisation.
The Patient Information Forum (PiF) is a group of people who produce
information for patients and carers, mainly within the NHS but also in the
independent and voluntary sectors.
