Future Health Summit 2024 Themes

We will have 8 Themed Sessions at the 2024 Summit: Similar to 2023 – Updates coming soon …

Leadership
In association with RCSI
With health service reform top of the agenda in Ireland and in many other health systems internationally, this session looks at the leadership challenges associated with organisational transformation.

Governance
In association with Mason Hayes & Curran LLP
The proposed establishment of 5 Regional Health Areas as part of Sláintecare brings into focus the question of governance of our health and social care system. In this session we explore best practice and debate how this might be applied in an Irish context.

Care of the Elderly
In association with Mowlam Healthcare
One of the greatest achievements of mankind over the past 100 years is that average life expectancy in the developed world has increased by several decades. This is to be celebrated, but it carries with it the challenge of making those extra years as healthy and disability- free as possible for all.
In this session we look at a variety of ways in which this challenge is being met.

Partnership in Action
In association with Bon Secours Health System
It is vital that all stakeholders in the health system work together to form long-term partnerships to deliver better healthcare. Partnerships that were formed in a time of crises should now be consolidated and further enhanced with the aim of addressing the pressing and ever-increasing health needs of our population. In this session we examine ways in which partnership can be of benefit to all stakeholders.

Sustainability
In association with Blackrock Health
It is widely accepted that we must increase our focus on improving public health and delivering care, while preserving natural resources and reducing environmental impact. This poses a very significant challenge. In this session we will hear of different ways in which that challenge is being addressed.

Innovation
In association with Novartis
Healthcare innovation comes in many forms, from breakthrough drugs and devices that can change outcomes on a global level, to small changes in specific settings that improve productivity, efficiency and patient experience. In this session we learn about different innovations that are driving change for the better.

Digitally Enabled Change
In association with Smith+Nephew
Until recently, digital transformation was widely seen as something that health systems would need to get around to eventually, but not until some of the more immediate challenges were addressed. Accelerated by Covid, it is now widely understood that digitisation and AI must be wholeheartedly embraced if some of the immediate challenges are ever going to be addressed. In this session we take a look at some of the advances that are being made.
