The Institute for Family-Centered Care is proud to issue a Call for Papers for The 4th International Conference on Patient- and Family-Centered Care, to be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, August 27-30, 2009. All abstracts must be submitted online by September 28, 2008.
The 4th International Conference will showcase innovative health care programs that are committed to patient- and family-centered care and meaningful collaboration with patients and families. Priority consideration will be given to presentation teams that include health care professionals and patient/family leaders.
The Institute strongly encourages creative and innovative ways of presenting material. Abstracts will be accepted for presentations, videos, and posters. One of the highlights of The 3rd International Conference held in Seattle, WA was the well-attended video theatre. We hope you will consider submitting your organization’s patient- and family-centered informational and educational videos, as well as any orientation and training material that highlight patient- and family-centered best practices.
