GNSH 2021Annual Summit (Virtual)

  • Thursday, September 9 10:00 AM -1:00 PM EST
  • Friday, September 10 10:00 AM -1:00 PM EST

 

Greetings GNSH Members and Friends:

We hope this message finds you well, safe, and healthy as the world continues to battle COVID-19 and its latest variants.  Healthcare systems around the globe are overly stressed.  Healthcare teams face fatigue, burn out, and many professionals working outside of their “routine” area of expertise to help offset staffing gaps.  Combined with limited equipment, medication and capacity, healthcare has never been in such a crisis.

This Virtual Summit will focus on how healthcare teams and healthcare systems are being forced to adapt to this challenging environment.  Our goal is to identify some of the most challenging gaps to see how others have found scalable solutions that can be refined, potentially in the form of GNSH’s 30 minute team engagements, or some other form of simulation to help teams and systems in the near and immediate term.

This virtual event will be held on Thursday, September 9th and Friday, September10th from 10:00AM-1:00PM EST. We hope that you will make plans to join so please hold this date on your calendar. You will find the tentative agenda below.  More information will be shared including panelists next week.  

Please register to join the event, we look forward to your contribution.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to executive@gnsh.org. We look forward to connecting again at the GNSH Virtual Annual Summit and Membership Update, In the meantime, please take care.

Sincerely,

Board of Directors
Global Network for Simulation in Healthcare, Inc.
