Bristol Inquiry

* National resources: NHS Digital TV and the National Knowledge
Service

Information

* Monitoring NHS information services: The role of CHI
* Tools for producers of patient information: NHS guidelines and templates
Key themes throughout the day will be accreditation for information services and the importance of developing and maintaining partnerships.
The conference will be chaired by VIv Speller, Director of Public Health Development, the Health Development Agency.
