The Association for Palliative Medicine of Great Britain and Ireland (APM) hosted the Palliative Care Congress in March 2022. PCC events attract over 500 delegates from around the world from a diverse multidisciplinary background. Recovering is a process which is going to take time, I get that, I hope this conference has helped us along the way of recovery. I am so so glad to have an in-person conference again. I know covid rates are high and this was a tough gig but I believe it has helped us all heal, repair and recover that wee bit, just by simply you all being here.

Rebounding, yes we are rebounding, we have heard we are now a core specialty, spotlighted and seen, front and centre, we have this ever increasing responsibility now. We are not hidden, but people are looking to our lead. We have heard about compassionate communities, public health, Future care planning, we are in the media, in the papers and on the radio, reassuring and increasing the understanding of dying, and the wider palliative and supportive care ethos and aims.

And we are re-inventing, we have new services, new models of care, new research and evidence shared, looking after new illnesses as medical progress means folk who otherwise wouldn’t have now lived so much longer. We are researching more, learning more than ever, we are updated in our medicine and ever humbly improving our tender conversations.

Healthcare delivery continues to be driven by the growth of data delivered through wearable and sensory devices. Such devices feed cloud analytic platforms and offer real time EHR updates that providers and caregivers must be able to access anywhere. Yet, they also allow for more avenues for account and network compromise for threat actors targeting care delivery for ransom. As a result, regulators have increased scrutiny to ensure providers are implementing best practices to prepare for and respond to cyber incidents, and that senior management and Boards understand and are mitigating cyber risk.

In this session, health system leaders will discuss:

• How the current environment impacts the strategy direction of their cyber programs
• Key areas and technologies to invest in today to reduce cyber risks
• How to ensure senior management understands how they can help mitigate cyber risk
