ICCHNR international symposium ‘inspirational’

Last week’s International Collaboration for Community Health Nursing Research (ICCHNR) symposium at the University of Kent was a great success. Changing populations, changing needs: Directions and models for community orientated primary care attracted a large home and international delegation and offered a chance to hear about global examples of innovative care models.

The symposium featured inspirational speakers, Q&A sessions and abstract discussions.  In the foyer outside the main auditorium there were information stands and many attendees displayed posters showcasing their research.

CHSS Professor of Primary and Community Care Tricia Wilson coordinated the event. She said: ‘key highlights for me were getting insight into implementing new ways of working and understanding “what good looks like”. It was our pleasure to host so many delegates from all over the world and we look forward to future international events’.

More news from the symposium will feature in our next CHSS newsletter, due at the end of October.
