LET'S SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF

Co-developing a toolkit for achievable incremental change

Join us at the University of York on Wednesday 12 July 2023 for the CoLab Conference 2023!

This conference will focus on the small but really important changes in clinical practice which can be implemented easily without additional resources to make a real and positive difference to children and young people with medical complexity and their families.

About this conference
The conference will comprise a mixture of keynote lectures to build a base of knowledge to understand how and why things go wrong, what can be done better, and showcase methodologies to support positive change alongside interactive workshops to learn from those who have successfully implemented such changes.

Learning Objectives

  • Delegates will learn how care of children with medical complexity can impact families, as well as how better communication can improve outcomes and reduce conflict.
  • Delegates will improve their understanding of how to apply change methodology and quality improvement techniques to this population.
  • Participants will determine their own ‘top 3’ changes to put into immediate practice, their agreed first steps, and contacts to aid co-production of change.

This conference is suitable for all healthcare professionals and researchers working with children and young people with medical complexity and their families, e.g. in neurodisability, neurology, community child health, palliative care medicine, intensive care medicine, and general paediatrics.

The venue for the conference is The Ron Cooke Hub, University of York. Click here for directions.
