NEW FOR 2011

Experience Days – new for 2011

‘Learn Locally, Act Globally – Inspiration from The Netherlands’

Recent reviews of the OECD and the Commonwealth Fund have shown that The Netherlands is one of the highest ranked countries in providing excellence in patient care and quality improvement – there is much to be learnt from the effective approaches being undertaken in this country.

This interactive and energising day will unite the Dutch healthcare community and the international delegates of the global quality movement.
