THEME AND ABSTRACTS

“Changing patient outcomes: one partnership at a time!”

OBJECTIVE

The conference builds on the success of the inaugural conference hosted in Dublin on 11 October 2023. This year’s conference, organised by the HSE Patient and Service User Forum in partnership with the HSE Partnership Office will aim to:

PROMOTE PARTNERSHIP: Strengthen the partnership community, both inside and outside our HSE, offering a chance for this community to network and meet key personnel involved in partnership efforts within the HSE national and regional structures.
SHARE BEST PRACTICE: Facilitate the sharing of best practice and lessons learnt around existing partnerships in key strategic areas (health regions, innovation and digital health, culture and communication) through collaborative discussion and workshops.
IDENTIFY CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES: Identify and address challenges and opportunities to support additional partnerships, including cultural barriers, resource allocation, workforce and community capacity, policy framework etc.
MOBILISE FOR CHANGE: Serve as a catalyst for future change across our HSE, Department of Health, and beyond, embedding partnership as a shared approach to the future design, delivery, and decision-making around care.
