About the Summit
As caregivers, improving the patient experience is our collective responsibility. Success comes from the ability to work together, network, share best practices and challenge each other to identify new ways to practice.
Many of the best solutions for challenges are found at the front lines of the caregiver-patient relationship, and bringing people together to share and network ensures that we all have access to the latest innovations. Patient experience is not about enhancing satisfaction — it is about transforming the way medicine is delivered.
Patient experience is a dynamic issue not only for healthcare CEOs, physicians, nursing executives and industry leaders; it’s an issue for everyone in our industry. No provider can afford to offer anything less than the best clinical, physical and emotional experience to patients and families.
The summit serves as an opportunity to learn and share with others, build relationships beyond our walls, and highlight the exceptional work of people transforming care.
Our most recent event, the 2016 Patient Experience: Empathy + Innovation Summit, attracted nearly 2,000 registered attendees from 45 states and 37 countries.
