CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS: The Many Meanings of 'Quality'
in Healthcare
Dear All
We would like to draw your attention to our forthcoming conference to be
held at Cumberland Lodge, Windsor, on Tuesday 4th June 2013, entitled "The
Many Meanings of 'Quality' in Healthcare".
We are inviting submissions of abstracts for oral presentations and posters
based on research, and also art/artefacts, reflective and creative writing.
We are particularly interested in submissions that focus on the following
conference themes. We are also inviting papers which explore how these
themes interact - the tensions and synergies between them:
. Professionals and patients: collaboration and communication in
delivering quality health care
. Improving quality of care: management, governance, standards and
accountability
. Professional values and their relationship to quality in
healthcare
Our speakers are Dr Iona Heath, Dr Jocelyn Cornwell, and Professor Trisha
Greenhalgh, and the conference will culminate in a public lecture given by
Dr Havi Carel.
Further details of the conference and the abstract submission form can be
found on the Cumberland Lodge website at:

A conference poster can also be found here:
