Will YOU be attending the Quality Forum? 

The 2016 Quality Forum takes place February 24-26 at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver. Be sure to check out the IHI UBC storyboard, where we will be showcasing our projects!

There are a limited number of spaces remaining for last minute registration (details here, register here). Registration (regular $325, students $150) includes access to all plenary speakers, break out sessions, and QUIPs. There are also other events (registration independent to the main conference), which provide more affordable access to quality improvement. These include Health Talks ($15) and two Field Trips ($20 each).

End-of-Life Care: 
PANEL EVENT

Have you ever thought about End-of-Life care? Do not be deterred if you are not familiar with this topic! We have a panel of experts that will guide us through an introduction to End-of-Life care, describe options available, discuss how professionals can support both families and patients, and of course what we can do to improve these experiences for both patients and providers! March's panel event is open to all and free of charge.
Light refreshments will be served.

WHEN: Tues March 8, 6:00- 8:00pm

We are looking for a student who's interested in a 3 month quality improvement evaluation project in a mental health setting with Providence Health Care.
