It says that homeless patients are thought to cost at least five times as much as other patients because they often have multiple health problems and repeat admissions. The content will update professionals on specific themes identified by Faculty members over the last year and explore the development of the UK “Inclusion Health” programme. These include: * Faculty of Homeless and Inclusion Health: pathway programme * Inclusion Health: defining a new discipline * How can health and local government services identify the most vulnerable? * The balance between specialist and mainstream healthcare provision of the most excluded * Processes of exclusion – can health services reform? * How can we reduce premature mortality at the extremes? * Set the research agenda for homelessness and health * New health commissioning models for homeless and excluded groups * Defining education and training needs for clinicians who work with homeless and other severely excluded groups * Identifying new service models or health service responses that work * Considering homeless people’s health issues and those of other severely excluded groups in the wider context of health inequalities in British society Professionals from health and care and people with personal experience of homelessness and service delivery will play a leading role in the programmes. European speakers bring experience from other urban health and public systems and the lessons that can be learned. ________________________________ Book now to for early bird rates while places last: REGISTER HERE<http://www.neilstewartassociatesecomms.co.uk/link.php?M=196092&N=756&L=528&F=H> Book before Sunday 31 October to save money.
