About
Integrated Risk Management: Risk management cannot be practiced effectively in silos. As a result, integrated risk management promotes managing risk from an organization-wide perspective in a cohesive and consistent manner. It requires an ongoing assessment of risks at every level and in every department of the organization, aggregating these results at the corporate level, communicating them and ensuring adequate monitoring and review.
In addition to discussing the practices related to integrated risk management, the conference addresses current top risks in the Canadian health care sector such as cyber attacks, man-made or environmental disasters. This conference connects all involved in risk and safety at all levels of health care organizations.
