This conference focuses on developing systems and processes for locally driven ward and unit accreditation for quality. These approaches can be used as a tool to encouraging ownership of continuous quality improvement at ward, unit or service level, reduce variation and increase staff pride and team working within their practise. Through practical case studies of organisations that have successfully introduced locally driven ward and unit accreditation systems the conference will provide practical guide to implementing systems, and improving staff engagement in driving forwards improvement for the benefit of patients, service users and communities.

ECRI's Top 10 Health Technology Hazards for 2024 list will identify the potential sources of danger we believe warrant the greatest attention this year and offer practical recommendations for reducing risks. Since its creation in 2008, this list has supported hospitals, health systems, ambulatory surgery centres, and manufacturers in addressing risks that can impact patients and staff, including specific calls to action for the industry.
Join Device Evaluation leaders as they reveal the top concern on our list and its larger impact on healthcare.
Speakers:
Jason Launders, Director of Operations, Device Evaluation, ECRI Rob Schluth, Principal Project Officer I, Device Evaluation Priyanka Shah, Sr. Project Officer, Device Evaluation Register

Learn from experts about Project PIVOT, a patient safety initiative led by Patients for Patient Safety (PFPS) US.
According to a World Health Organization report, despite decades of patient safety improvement initiatives, approximately 134 million adverse safety events are still occurring each year. A recent report from the Office of the Inspector General revealed that 1 in in 4 Medicare patients experience avoidable adverse events - disproportionately impacting those communities who experience marginalization.
A key emerging strategy to improve patient safety and equity is to incorporate patient-reported experiences and outcomes (PREs and PROs) into improvement efforts as illustrated by recent calls to action from the President’s Council of Advisors on Safety and Technology (PCAST), the WHO’s Global Patient Safety Action Plan, and in CMS’s proposed Patient Safety Structural Measure.
Learn from Sue Sheridan, Martin Hatlie, and Suz Schrandt about Project PIVOT and other initiatives that are taking action to promote the implementation of patient-centered PROs and PREs to drive safer more equitable care.
