Data4NHS Round up of 2019
2019 was a busy year for us at Data4NHS, we attended many new events and met lots of new faces, with a huge effort spent on supplying quality content to our subscribers, we provided lots of opportunities for our subscribers to access free and discounted tickets to events, CPD including access to resources and webinars, as well as our usual newsletters and medical information. Registration is completely free so if you haven’t registered already you can do so here.
Events
Last year Data4NHS travelled around the UK attending various healthcare events and had a brilliant time doing so. We managed to speak to thousands of healthcare professionals and learned lots about your thoughts on healthcare, the NHS, the future of the NHS and the long-term plan.
We attended a total of 15 events and conferences last year and had a fantastic time at all of them. Our most successful event of 2019 was the Diabetes Professional Care Conference which was attended by healthcare professionals working in diabetes and related conditions.
As part of our E-bulletin service Data4NHS subscribers were provided with information and free tickets to the event where hundreds of you registered.
The conference provided a great opportunity to obtain free education to support the NHS to improve care to a huge crowd of over 5,300 attendees. The event was close to home for us being held at the at London Olympia.
We were happy to receive lots of great feedback from delegates at all the events we attended and signed up a record number of healthcare professionals to Data4NHS who are now taking advantage of our free service.
