What is impact, and how can health services researchers achieve it? 

This half-day Health Services Research UK (HSRUK - formerly HSRN) seminar will help researchers, practitioners and policy makers to understand how they can work together to identify and demonstrate impact for their research on the way health care is planned, delivered and experienced.

Chaired by Judith Smith, Director of Health Services Management Centre at Birmingham University, this stimulating event will encourage delegates to think in a broad way about the many dimensions of impact.
 
It will be an opportunity to: 

 - Hear an author of a high scoring impact REF 2014 case study scrutinise how the case study was put together and share lessons learned.

 - Contribute to a panel discussion with senior leaders in health services research to consider how we can ensure that services are evaluated and re-designed with the patient and community in mind.

Confirmed speakers include:  

- Stephen Hanney, Brunel University

- Vicky Ward, University of Leeds

- Helen Snooks, Swansea University

This event is free for HSRUK members and £50 per person to non-members.  Venue: VIEW MAP
