An interactive event hosted by Nurture bringing together local health leaders, design experts and industry players.

We invite you to a one-of-a-kind open forum discussion on the future of healthcare.

Attendees will:

• Hear from local healthcare leaders and professionals on industry trends and challenges for the year ahead
• Uncover insights from Nurture’s recently released State of Clinicians & Nurses Report, which examines the day-to-day job-related injuries clinicians face, and explore solutions to reduce risk and improve patient care
o According to the report, the bulk of clinician injuries are a result of patient transfers, where one in three have been injured while moving patients from bed to chair
• Witness patient transfers firsthand by using a Nurture-made ‘third age suit’ (which restricts the mobility of the wearer so they understand what it is like for patients getting around the hospital) – and learn ways to keep bed-to-chair transfers safer for both the patient and the clinician
• Obtain a Smartphone Physical – a comprehensive physical examination conducted by minimal equipment that connects to an iPhone
• Learn about Empath – Nurture’s award winning recliner designed to meet the needs of both the caregiver and patient through it’s versatile, insight-driven design
