The JBI gLocal Solution Room is a half-day event that focuses on the

contribution of fundamentals of care (those care activities needed for

every individual regardless of diagnosis, setting or acuity) to address the

challenges and embrace the opportunities.

Embracing quality in the organization and delivery of care in systems under

pressure is both a challenge and an opportunity. This event focuses on

practices that contribute to sustainable quality of care, patient recovery and

well-being, while also embedding evidence-based professional development

and team-building opportunities.
