The Bond Solon Healthcare Practitioners' Conference brings practitioners right up to date with how the law affects their daily work to make sure they follow best practice and reduce potential risk. Practitioners may even get to like lawyers.
Speakers include: Baroness Audrey Emerton, Steve Walker of the NHS Litigation Authority and Professor Tony Hazell, Chair of the NMC.
