Healthcare Facilities Managers consider Interlink to be one of the best and most affordable opportunities for learning and sharing in Texas. Because the conference focuses on the unique opportunities and problems that we face, this event has earned a loyal following of participants. Interlink delivers the best value in professional development for facility managers in Texas. In addition to its content, the conference provides ongoing opportunities to discuss emerging issues and best practices with colleagues, vendors, and consultants across a broad continuum of health care issues.
 
Interlink 2019 will feature the perfect balance of thought-provoking general sessions and concurrent workshop sessions that focused on specific issues. This year's conference features a Compliance, Operations, and a Quality Improvement Track. Our multi-track program was created for facility managers, project managers, engineering/maintenance personnel, administrators, safety officers, risk managers, architects, engineers, or other interested parties.
 
The TAHFM Safe Day One Healthcare Orientation and Safety training explores what you, as a technician, should know before you get to a healthcare worksite, what to expect when you arrive and what you need to know while you are working. You will also explore some OSHA and environmental safety issues that are unique to the healthcare industry. Cost is $129 a person and earns you 6 contact hours. Register today at tahfm.org.
