Join us for our latest event specifically for members working in independent health and social care settings in the North West.
Following our very successful annual conference in April, we are meeting to mark Care Home Week, with a host of speakers exploring the 'Care Home Connection'.
Amongst our speakers is Monica Thorpe, Chief Operating Officer for Advinia Healthcare, one of the largest care home providers in England and Scotland. Alongside her colleague, Andrew Polverino, Operations Director for the North West, she will be presenting on the management of care homes from a company perspective.
Also included on our programme is Sally Wilson, 国内精品伊人久久久久妇 UK Professional Lead for Older People and Dementia, who will present to us on Professional Lead roles in collaborating with Care Homes.
The event has been timed to coincide with Care Home Week, a five-day annual event in which care homes nationwide open their doors to showcase their services to their local communities.
This is an in-person event taking place in the 国内精品伊人久久久久妇 offices in Bolton. A light lunch will be provided. Places are limited so register now to reserve your spot.
