Queensland hosted the 11th Annual Hospital in the Home (HITH) Scientific Conference 2018 in Brisbane on 22 – 23 November with the engaging theme of LEARN: Lead, Engage, Aspire, Research and Negotiate.
Convened by the HITH Society Australasia, this national conference examined the national and global context of HITH, staff wellbeing, leadership and development, the role of private health insurers, and research. The conference also showcased innovations in HITH nationally and internationally, with Queensland up there with the best of them. The conference also provided delegates with various networking opportunities to tap into the wealth of knowledge, clinical skill and enthusiasm of our interstate and international HITH colleagues.
Conference delegates are encouraged to complete the conference survey to provide feedback on the event.
