About the Day
Policies and initiatives are being developed and published so quickly that
few people have the
time to keep completely up to date. This conference has been specially
designed to enable
busy people working in health and social care, both users and professionals,
to bring
themselves up to date effectively and efficiently.

Objectives
The objectives of this special and unique event are to provide:
 1) an overview of the main policies of the Welsh Assembly Government that
have an
impact on the delivery of health and social care
2) the opportunity to have an in depth consideration of the impact of
structural change
on partnership working and the delivery of care
3)  a forum for networking, sharing of ideas and experiences


Format
The day has two main components:

The morning consists of a series of short presentations on a wide range of
organisational
perspectives of structural change and partnership working.  In the
afternoon, delegates can attend up to two workshops to explore and discuss
the issues in more depth
