Date: 2 March 2010

Time: 9.00 - 16.45

Venue: South Tyrol EU Office, Rue de Pascale 45 - 47, 1040 Brussels

The ERRIN Health WG will be organising this ERRIN Mind Forum based on their internal Briefing Paper "The innovative and sustainable hospital for the 21st century: connecting the dots".

While we are all familiar with hospitals, and value innovation and demand high quality healthcare, the hospital itself is in many cases an institution that remains largely unreformed. Indeed, increased demands have been placed on hospitals and they continue to be central to all healthcare systems. The core to the challenge is to explore the future role of hospitals and their ability to anchor care, good management, research and innovation, and in this way appear as a “model company” showing effective use of public money, demonstrating sustainable development and at the same time contributing to regional advantage.

Invited speakers are from the World Health Organisation (WHO) presenting the "Health Promoting Hospitals" and consultants highlighting case studies of CO2 neutral hospitals. The idea is to organise the event to reach a wider audience and to focus EU policymakers attention towards the role of hospitals for regional innovation dynamics.

All interested stakeholders, being it ERRIN members or not are kindly invited to attend and give their contribution to the debate.
Due to limited space, participation will be limited to Director/Head of Office and Officer level only.

Please give notice of your presence until 26th February. Please register at the following e-mail address: stagiaire@southdenmark.be
