International Society for Quality in Healthcare (ISQua) International Conference

Effective leadership in quality and safety in health care means having access to the most recent information and best practice experience.

At the 2008 Copenhagen conference we showcased three topics about our ongoing commitment to quality.

• Measuring quality in long term care, providing a summary of the two year study into the impact of accreditation study, October 2007.
• Impact of accreditation in long term care, showing the performance of the Australian aged care industry over the last 10 years.
• Journey to accreditation, about our experience when we gained international accreditation of our assessor training and management.

ISQua's international conferences provide a stimulating 'must attend' annual forum with exchange of information and updates on practice and policy development. Delegates include national health policy leaders and decision-makers, researchers, healthcare professionals in all disciplines, administrators, clinical organisations, standards and accreditation organizations, healthcare networks, providers and consumer organisations.
