This one day workshop jointly organised by the Royal College of Psychiatrists and eHealth insider will examine the value and potential development of the new Chief Clinical Information Officer (CCIO) role in mental health.  In 2011 EHI ran a national campaign calling for the appointment of local clinical information leaders to improve the use of information within the NHS, this workshop is part of a programme of events designed to take forward that objective.
