In the last 10 years the speed and impact of technological change has been unprecedented, forcing ‘digital’ and ‘technology’ to become part of core business. This poses significant challenges to business leaders ranging from the purely technical to broader cultural and operational considerations around agility, innovation and change management. At BPP we are helping healthcare organisations to use technology to support their workforce transformation and future talent acquisition strategies. Using our innovative curriculum design and delivery methods we can ensure both academic and clinical effectiveness whilst keeping customer and patient care at the heart of everything our partners and clients do.

Creating a Digitally Enabled Population Health Management Architecture for West Suffolk

Abdul Razaq
Director of Public Health and Protection
Suffolk County Council
The West Suffolk public services are all struggling to meet the growing needs of an ageing and expanding population, with more chronic disease and less social support than previous generations. Our work on Suffolk in 20 years time highlights that if the rate of admissions continues as now and the average length of stay doesn’t change, by 2038 Suffolk will need 792 more hospital beds which is the equivalent of almost two more West Suffolk Hospitals. West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust is a global digital excellence (GDE) site with a programme that commits to deploy information technology to support this transformation. A suite of Cerner products form the foundation.

It was great to join the Convenzis team again for the patient flow event. As always, the team were incredibly accommodating and happy to help. The quality of attendees is always of a high standard and relevant to the patient flow and to us also. We continue to have great discussions and footfall around our stand with no need to try and encourage people to come and see us. Really positive event for us and we look forward to working with Convenzis in the future.

Catalyst BI -

My colleague and I presented at the NHS workforce conference 2023, 19 September. The support and guidance we received from the Convenzis team in the run up to our presentation slot was great, well timed and perfectly pitched. The event itself, again was expertly organised. The conference was well Chaired by Sean, who was very engaging. As an audience member as well as a panel member, I would definitely work with the Convenzis team again.

Zoom

I worked with Convenzis, primarily Dan, for the first time this year, putting together a bespoke online event for IBM. He has always been so responsive and accommodating. The team always remained professional and helpful – despite the many demands from our side! They were very keen for us to maximise on the investment and revisit those attendees who had not committed to follow ups.
It was an absolute pleasure doing business with Convenzis and I know there will be more opportunities next year. Looking forward to it!
