One-Day Conference -
‘Seeking Excellence Through Performance Management’
Wednesday 17 September 2008
At The Wrightington Hotel and Country Club, Wigan
The importance of Facilities Management (FM) in delivering high quality health care in today’s NHS cannot be overstated.
As a consequence, and in a drive to equip you with the necessary skills, information and know-how to drive end-to-end strategic Performance Management and Measurement, the North West Branch of the Hospital Caterers Association (HCA NW), in association with HEFMA (Health Estates & Facilities Management Association); the Association of Healthcare Cleaning Professionals (AHCP) and the Society of Hospital Linen Services & Laundry Managers, is staging the ‘SEEKING EXCELLENCE THROUGH PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT’ one-day Conference.
Aimed at Facilities and Estates Managers and their Management Teams, the Conference is providing a unique occasion to share best practice and to develop and set realistic targets and objectives your Facilities service can deliver to meet demanding and rising expectations from your patients, staff and visitors.
HCA Vice President, Mike Hall, says, “This is a true example of Associations working together to promote our services to the wider NHS.” So to book your place download the Delegate Booking form from the diary page of this website or you can contact Lansdowne Publishing Partnership Ltd, T: 0161 872 6667.
