Alliances matter
Message from the CEO: Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do at the Institute. Driving the digital health movement to empower the workforce and make sustainable changes only happens when we share the same vision. So, we were particularly pleased to announce we have partnered with NSW Health’s digital health agency eHealth NSW to host the Digital Health Summit and expo in Sydney (17-18 October 2022).  eHealth NSW Chief Executive and NSW Health Chief Information Officer Dr Zoran Bolevich will co-chair the summit with Angela Ryan, Vice Chair of the Institute.

We have worked closely with eHealth NSW for many years, and we have a large Fellowship in the state, many of whom are embedded across major programs and initiatives. The summit will have a strong professional development theme as well as provide a showcase of NSW Health’s impressive digital innovations. Working in partnership with eHealth NSW means we can ensure a comprehensive program offering something for everyone, whatever their level of digital health knowledge. Our alliances take many forms, but the outcome should always contribute to healthier lives, digitally enabled.

Nominations vote
Board nominations close Thursday: You can be a leader in the digital health community and help drive the movement for better, connected healthcare.

AIDH Fellows and Members are invited to consider nominating for a Board position this year, sharing their expertise and knowledge and taking a leadership role at the Institute.
Mastermind of leadership and change coming to Perth Summit in-person: Flying all the way from the UK, NHS Horizon's Leader of Large Scale Change Dr Helen Bevan, will be making her way to the Digital Health Institute Summit in Perth on August 5, presenting on large scale change, and will even be conducting a 90-minute masterclass for all delegates in Perth.

Helen previously presented at HIC 2015 and HIC 2017, and we can't wait to welcome her back after five years.
Questionnaire
Digital body measurement - validation study: Would you like to help validate a new digital body measurement method? If you are female and 18 or above, please complete the FEM-Measure questionnaire.

Your participation will potentially make the process of monitoring body changes over time more convenient and consistent. We estimate the questionnaire will take approximately 20-40 minutes to complete. The project is being undertaken by a research team at the University of Sydney.
EXPERT VIEW

Critical Infrastructure Protection Act now covers healthcare: Since 8 April 2022, hospitals need to register their critical infrastructure assets. Read about the changes and how to find out potential impacts for your hospital and healthcare settings in this article by Anna Hall, CIO Headspace and Vice-Chair Cybersecurity Community of Practice.
Louise interview
Interviewed by the younger generation: AIDH CEO Louise Schaper had the opportunity to be interviewed by 10-year-old Liam Kos for his Meet The Boss Junior YouTube channel.

Louise spoke about how not-for-profits can play a critical role in bringing the industry together and driving coordinated progress. She said of the interview: "our future looks bright with people like Liam who are eager to learn, put themselves out there, and to share with others".
Get certified in health informatics: Whether you are an organisation or an individual, you can now ensure independent validation of your team’s or your personal digital health and health informatics knowledge, helping you stand out from the crowd.
