Complete Details

The FEND Community Diabetes Leadership Forum is an exclusive gathering designed for those who manage diabetes services at a strategic, local, or regional level. Held at the iconic Glasshouse (formerly Sage Gateshead), this forum focuses on the business and organizational aspects of delivering high-quality diabetes care within the community. In an era of tightening healthcare budgets and increasing service demand, leadership in nursing requires a sophisticated understanding of resource management, team dynamics, and policy advocacy. This event provides the tools necessary to lead with confidence and vision.

The forum’s agenda is structured around the pillars of "Leading Change" and "Service Sustainability." Participants will engage with expert consultants in healthcare management to discuss strategies for service redesign, the implementation of integrated care models, and the use of data analytics to prove the value of nurse-led clinics. Unlike clinical conferences, the focus here is on the "how" of healthcare delivery—how to secure funding, how to manage multidisciplinary teams effectively, and how to influence local health boards to prioritize diabetes prevention and management programs.

Networking is the heartbeat of this forum. We provide structured opportunities for attendees to connect with counterparts from different regions, facilitating the sharing of "best practice" models that have successfully reduced hospital admissions or improved patient satisfaction scores. By the end of the day, participants will have drafted a "Leadership Action Plan" tailored to their specific workplace challenges. This forum is not just about listening; it is about empowering nursing leaders to become architects of the future healthcare landscape, ensuring that the voice of diabetes nursing is heard at the highest levels of organizational decision-making.

Key Event Highlights

Masterclass on "Influencing Healthcare Policy." Panel discussion on "Sustainable Service Models." Workshop on "Leading Multidisciplinary Teams." Data-driven decision-making for nurse managers. Panoramic networking lunch overlooking the River Tyne.
