RCN Congress takes place this month
This year’s exhibitors are varied and range from recruitment and charitable organisations right the way through to consumer brands and the pharmaceutical sector.
Big name brands such as Vauxhall and 3M are represented, as well as charities, universities and specialist service providers such as the RNIB, the University of Southampton and the Civil Aviation Authority.
To see who is exhibiting please see our dedicated RCN Congress web pages.
The agenda for RCN Congress 2013 has been confirmed and can be viewed online.
The items for debate are due to include the future of regulation, disability assessments, end of life care and referrals for morbidly obese people.
There is also an ‘Events at Congress’ programme which runs outside of the main Congress agenda and will include a variety of learning, networking and wellbeing sessions.
The full programme of these events is listed by day and can be found on the Events at Congress web pages.
Why be part of RCN Congress?
If your organisation hasn’t been part of the RCN’s flagship event before, take a look at our RCN Congress presentation (PDF 544 KB) [how to access PDF files] This presentation contains video content and explains why your organisation should be part of this unique event, which is aimed at everyone in the nursing community.
Delegates engage in key debates around nursing practice, public health, employment issues, and health reforms which consequently help shape the RCN agenda for the forthcoming year.
Issues debated at Congress frequently make the national headlines; it’s a key opportunity for the world to hear the voice of nursing.
The value of our delegates
The 2012 delegate exit survey highlighted the importance of nurses on product and service purchasing and their role in developing nurse-led innovations. The survey indicated:
• over 50 per cent of delegates influence ordering (and re-ordering) of new medical products and equipment
• over 60 per cent of delegates influence new services for patients
• over 80 per cent influence training and development decisions.
