On behalf of the Canadian Association of Paediatric Health Centres (CAPHC), CAPHC’s Board of Directors, the 2012 Conference Planning Committee and our BC Children’s Hospital and Sunny Hill Health Centre hosts, it is our pleasure to welcome you to the beautiful city of Vancouver, British Columbia and to CAPHC’s 2012 Annual Conference entitled: “Insight into Child & Youth Healthcare: Improving System Performance Using Information, Integration and Innovation”.
This year’s conference program will highlight the emergence of new models of care and the needs, challenges and innovative strategies aimed at improving health outcomes in paediatrics across the continuum of care. Attention will also be given to changes in our healthcare system, national collaborative opportunities and the role of communication and information technologies in facilitating new and validated health service delivery models of care.
All sessions are being planned to ensure a “value add” for all our delegates! The conference program is now posted on CAPHC’s website and outlines the many exciting sessions and internationally renowned speakers that will be featured at this year’s conference. We invite you to visit the site in the coming months as new information will be posted regularly.
Our 2012 exhibits and poster sessions will be presented at the beautiful Westin Bayshore Hotel and will be bigger and better than ever! This year’s conference facility will provide a wonderful venue and opportunity for all delegates to network and showcase innovative research and health service delivery initiatives.
We encourage you to share your best practices and innovative programs with us at this year’s conference by responding to the call for abstracts which can be accessed on the CAPHC conference website at: http://conference.caphc.org/.
