Collaborating for Digital Health and Care in Europe
Community Update
[Greeting]
Driven by the need to respond to urgent new challenges, EHTEL has articulated its 2022 direction and priorities.
We have listened to the voices in our Community and put your needs and challenges at the centre. The result? This year's work programme, focused on helping EHTEL Members, and the wider digital health community, to build strong European health and care systems and services.
EHTEL’s vision for 2022 is taking a bird's eye view on the evolutionary process: trees have been our inspiration. In the words of EHTEL’s General Secretary, Marc Lange: “No roots without leaves; no leaves without roots.” Therefore, for EHTEL in 2022, “No innovation without transformation; no transformation without innovation.”
This year’s Programme is firmly rooted in the seeds EHTEL planted in 2019: Imagining 2029. We are continuing our decade of growing resilient care systems and “planting new trees”, that will bear fruit in 2022. The outcome: two brand new tracks resulting in at least six workshops.
This webinar is dedicated to all EHTEL Members. If you are not yet an EHTEL Member, but you don’t want to miss out on the opportunity to participate in this exciting workshop, please consider joining EHTEL. We would welcome you on board.
One other virtual opportunity also takes place before that: on March 2, 2022, the NWE-Chance project team - and EHTEL - will be presenting the results of the project's feasibility study, lessons learned and the plans for promoting hospitalisation@home further, at AgeingFit 2022. Learn more and register tojoin the event remotely.
Keep on reading our February newsletter issue to get inspired by what EHTEL Members and friends are up to!
EHTEL’s work on Imagining 2029 builds year-on-year towards a successful digitised decade. Providing continous support and knowledge exchange for our Members plays an essential role.
