Harrogate visit will be time well spent

Exhibition director Hugh Robinson argues that, with the opportunity for delegates to secure and share knowledge that will help them address the role’s many day-to-day challenges more effectively, attendance at this year’s event is an absolute must.

Whether driven by the Darzi report, sustainability and energy targets, new legislation, care quality targets from the new Care Quality Commission, or pressures to reduce hospital-acquired infection rates and minimise waste, ensuring that you are well-informed on the issues, practices and solutions which can aid you and your team to achieve the maximum return from your healthcare estates budget is essential. As a result a well-planned day (or two) at the UK’s largest dedicated healthcare engineering, estates and facilities showcase when it opens in Harrogate in late October promises to be time well spent. Taking place from the 27 – 28 October at the Harrogate International Centre, Healthcare Estates 2009 will combine the IHEEM Annual Conference, an increasingly popular event in the UK conference calendar, with the UK’s largest exhibition showcasing products, services and solutions designed to enhance and improve the environment of facilities ranging from local health centres to large acute hospitals. This is your personal opportunity to access the latest information, network with colleagues, learn from shared experience, and identify the products, services and suppliers that can assist you and your team.
