news and events

TSA will host the annual ITEC conference this month (March 22nd-25th), which is taking place virtually this year. Each day of the conference has a theme: strategic vision, social care, housing, health and care integration, with over 25 exhibitors having a virtual booth that allows them to host breakout rooms, deliver demo sessions, share content and 32 hours of conference content, which can be accessed for 90 days after the conference.

The conference will discuss proactive & preventative service models enabled by technology, showcasing learning from COVID around the role played by telecare services and solution suppliers, remote technologies, proactive intervention driven by risk profiling of users/patients or through real time data and trend analysis to provide early warning of changes in circumstances (monitoring frequency of bathrooms visits, use of appliances for hydration/eating, inactivity etc) and also a commission within Adult Social Care in England around the role of technology within a reformed social care model.

COVID has opened the eyes of many to the multiple applications of telehealth solutions to be able to deliver remote monitoring (and self-monitoring) of long term conditions, connectivity through video for families, GP consultation, outpatients visits and to also link to everyday solutions in the home to identify risk escalation ahead of crisis point and certainly a strong case for this to continue post-COVID.

ORCHA CEO, Liz Ashall-Payne, is joining the conference on the morning of Thursday 25th March. Liz will deliver a presentation on Supporting the Digital Patient before joining the main panel discussion to discuss the personalisation of health and care through proactive and preventative service delivery.

There are free passes available: bookings can be made via https://itecconf.org.uk/registration/ and using the code VITEC/ORCHA21 for a free pass. The aim is for people to come and go as they please and going back to content after the event, with good opportunities to network and learn more about what organisations are looking for from technology.
