PMI Digital Series – April Webinars

While we can’t meet in person just now, the PMI are acutely aware of the need for regular industry updates, and a little motivation during these very difficult and challenging times.
As a result, we’re launching “Webinar Wednesdays” as part of our Digital Series.    For the month of April, we’ll have a webinar each Wednesday covering topics such as the impact of Covid19 in Primary Care, motivating your team while everyone works remotely, innovation happening right now in Irish healthcare and the legal impact of Covid19.  There is an opportunity to pose questions to the speakers in the live webinars, which are also recorded so that you can also watch at your leisure.
