Future of Care Conference is back, set out to build a better future for the sector by bringing key trends, challenges and developments in the care industry in front of the people who matter.

The conference has grown year on year, acquiring the trust of senior care professionals from across the UK to unite and work towards building a brighter future for the sector. The day includes an extensive programme with informative sessions held by a coveted list of speakers and hosts a selection of exhibitors in the networking space.

Delegates can enjoy a selection of refreshments throughout the day, as well as a quality lunch included in the cost of the ticket.

The programme this year will focus on a range of important subjects, which will be discussed in focused speaker slots and panel debates. Topics include raising the profile of the sector, new approaches to funding, dementia, the future of innovation and more.

Speaking at the conference this year includes: Dr Adrian Hayter, National Clinical Director for Older People and Integrated Person-Centered Care at NHS England and NHS; Professor Deborah Sturdy OBE, Chief Nurse at Adult Social Care in England; Oonagh Smyth, CEO at Skills for Care and Joanne Scott, Adult Social Care Inspector at Care Quality Commission.

Day-in, day-out, responsibility for the health, and well-being of many of the most vulnerable elderly members of UK society is entrusted to 5,500 different provider-organisations across the UK’s £16bn care-homes sector, operating 11,000-plus care homes, with more than 400,000 residents.

Historically, residential care settings have always presented significant challenges to those in charge of establishing and implementing appropriate protocols and good-practice in on-site risk-management, safety culture, cleanliness, hygiene-management and infection prevention-and-control (given their age group, care home residents are at significant risk of contracting rotavirus, norovirus, MRSA, ESBL, MRGN, C-Diff, and many other infections).

Then came Covid-19.

By autumn 2020, Public Health England (now the UK Health Security Agency) reported that more than 43,000 plus care home residents had tested positive for Coronavirus. Throughout 2021 and moving into 2022, care homes continued to face an unprecedented set of logistical, legal, and ‘human factors’ workforce-skills operational challenges to the safe and successful management of their businesses.

Only now, as we move into the so-called ‘Post Pandemic’ age, is the care homes sector able to restart, rebuild and refocus.

But ‘Beyond Covid’: what exactly is the future strategy and skills pathway for Infection Prevention and Control, Risk Management and Safety Culture Excellence – for care home operators, directors, leaders, teams and professionals?

Since 2016, Knowlex has helped address the need for ongoing improvement, innovation, education and compliance in Hospital Infection Prevention and Control, by bringing together, in person, more than 3,000 NHS IPC Directors, leaders, and professionals as delegates at seven ‘editions’ of the purpose-built NHS Infection Prevention and Control Conference – which is now, in 2022, the biggest event, of its kind, in Europe.

Modelled on this activity, knowledge and experience, Knowlex – in consultation with key professional-stakeholder organisations and individuals – has purpose–designed THE CAREHOMES22: BEYOND COVID national conference (and associated exhibition); enabling the UK care homes sector to come together, from across the country; learn the lessons of recent experiences; and better understand how they can ‘future-proof’ their ongoing infection prevention-and-control, risk-management and safety culture responsibilities.
