Dear colleagues,

I don't know if you've heard about this week, but I've just been asked to spread the word - sorry for such short notice - the information has only just got to me!

 

--------------------

 

National Health Informatics Week will be launched at the Assist Conference in Birmingham on 18 May 2005. Alan Perkins, director of modernisation, will give the keynote speech at the launch.

 

The event is designed to raise awareness amongst all NHS staff, patients and the public about the important role that health informatics plays in the NHS.   ASSIST, NHS partners, the BCS and others will help to raise awareness, and you are encouraged to take part and cascade information to others.

 

For background information and an information pack with suggestions of how to get involved locally, go to http://www.assist.org.uk/Health_Informatics_Week/index.htm

 

Best wishes

Fran
