‘Choosing Wisely at Island Health: Putting Recommendations into Practice’ is a 5-hour virtual symposium to provide medical staff an opportunity to learn and ask questions about initiatives happening within the health authority and the future of Choosing Wisely at Island Health.
Ten exciting breakout sessions are scheduled to dive deeper into areas of opportunity as we work together to achieve Level 2 and 3 designation.
The sessions range from high-level engagement and brainstorming on potential strategies to discussions on short-term action plans, where project areas are identified and work is already underway.
Registrants have the opportunity to attend two breakout sessions during the 5-hour event.
Date: November 20, 2020
Location: Virtual
Time: 8:00 to 13:00
Space in breakout rooms is limited so please register and join us to be part of the quality improvement conversation.
