The NHS Innovation Conference 2023
“I really enjoyed the conference, and the speakers were excellent. Thank you also for providing a seamless, quality online conference experience as well. University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust
Covid-19 has provided a springboard for innovation delivery across the NHS, we have seen unprecedented scale-up of services such as remote consulting, interoperability, the use of data, and of course the use of artificial intelligence.
However, this period of rapid scale-up posed its own challenges for patients and staff across the country. While technologies were rolled out with impressive speed, some aspects of implementation, such as evaluation, co-design, and customisation will necessarily have been a shortcut, and will need revisiting after the emergency phase of the pandemic is over.
Following several surveys conducted by the Health Foundation, it was found that NHS staff surveyed highlighted the issues of ensuring adequate IT and equipment and sufficient staffing as among the top challenges for benefiting fully from recent technological progress.
Age is sometimes cited as a factor affecting attitudes to technology and this was apparent in public surveys conducted with a larger proportion of younger people reporting positive experiences than the population as a whole, and a slightly larger proportion of those age 55 and older reporting negative experiences.
Convenzis events are highly regarded for their ability to drive strategic level change and transformation within the healthcare industry. Our events bring together senior healthcare leaders and decision-makers from across the NHS and wider healthcare sector, with the aim of identifying and implementing innovative approaches to address the most pressing challenges facing the industry today.
Our upcoming conference will open the debate on the key challenges and trends affecting the secondary care sector, key learning points will include:

Data for R&D programme (Confirmed)
The presentation will cover the Data for R&D programme, it's achievements so far and its plans for the future. Including updates from the Research Secure Data Environment network and DigiTrial programme milestones to demonstrate the importance of Data for underpinning innovation and improved population health.
Scaling and embedding digitally-enabled care in the NHS (Confirmed)
Ophthalmology, the largest outpatient medical specialty, is in the vanguard of digital transformation of clinical care. In this talk I will look at how the specialty is adopting and embedding synchronous and asynchronous models of telemedicine, and look at how we might be able to scale those models regionally and nationally.
Empowering Patient Care: Enhancing the NHS Experience through our Patient Portal (Confirmed)
In this presentation, we will provide an update on the current use of our innovative patient portal and the positive impact it has had on patient care and engagement. Our patient portal serves as a centralised platform for patients to access their health information, communicate with healthcare providers, and actively participate in their own healthcare journey.

Innovative enhancements to existing nurse call systems to provide better staff and patient experiences (Confirmed)
Case Study - DNV Imatis
DNV Imatis will share details of research pilots in Norway and the UK that aim to provide efficiencies and a better overall experience for the staff and for patients. We explore the impact of noise and alarm fatigue on staff and patients, and we will share our experiences of how to reduce the audible alerts by routing them to mobile devices and digital whiteboards. Furthermore, we discuss how patients, particularly those in single occupancy wards are able to use our patient application on their own smartphone devices that is synchronised with the nurse call system, to alert staff to non-emergency assistance, such as needing the toilet or requiring a glass of water.
Simplifying the healthcare experience through digital transformation (Confirmed)
Extreme Networks and Maintel help build and enhance digital Strategies to make managing network security as easy as possible for our customers enhancing the customer experience and helping further their Digital Transformation strategies. In this presentation we will address the following topics:-

Medical Speech Recognition Today and Tomorrow: What the Future Looks Like (Confirmed)
Case Study - Nuance
Join Nuance, and their guest speaker Glenn Winteringham, to learn about the benefits of speech-enabling your electronic patient records. Hear how speech recognition is streamlining documentation tasks for healthcare professionals and discover the next exciting milestone for this technology of fully AI‑automated notes.
Releasing time to care is not the next panacea, so what is? (Confirmed)
One of the key benefits to digital innovation is quoted as releasing time to care. An honest and transparent view of why our innovations often fail. Digital dictation will be the main example, but will expand upon the crucial nature of small accumulative efficiencies. I will include clinical involvement, governance, the value of having active clinicians in your digital team. Give your CCIOs a clinic. Once a week, twice a month.
AI and automation adoption trends and challenges (Confirmed)
Case Study - 8x8
Although AI and automation offer significant benefits in healthcare communications, human oversight and judgement remain critical.
Join us as we delve into the trends shaping the AI landscape and unlock invaluable tips for successfully integrating AI into your communications strategy to improve frontline care.
Digitally Enabled Cancer Care – The next 5 years (Confirmed)
Looking forward at focus areas for digitally enabled Cancer care over the next five years in the NHS:
The Reality of Innovation in the NHS: perspective from Guy’s & St. Thomas’ (Confirmed)
An overview of our approach to innovation at Guy’s & St. Thomas’, the capabilities we are developing, the key challenges we are confronting, the obstacles we face to realising change and what we are doing to (try to) overcome them.
Living In a Complex World – From Net Centric Warfare to Net-Centric Healthcare (Confirmed)
The initial session will focus on the fundamentals of VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) and how they impact healthcare, the ICS and you. With a mix of theory, practical exercises and assessments delegates will be in a position by the end of the session to successfully navigate their VUCA environment. The later session will focus on the “system” and the system of systems that is up the ICS. Using the principles of ‘nudging’ the session will help delegates identify and leverage inflection points withing the system.
