This is excellent acknowledgement of the work undertaken in Phase 1 of the WfIS Programme by all organisations across Wales and provides a platform for NHS Wales to embrace the challenges of Phase 2 including the ESR 2014 re-procurement.
In order to continue to share good practice, the HPMA will be scheduling an “Excellence Tour” including a series of good practice seminars over the coming months.
