One for the record books

The 2026 Clinical Excellence Showcase was held on 17 – 18 June at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Each year, the Showcase is a key event for health professionals from across Queensland who are at the forefront of transforming healthcare delivery by partnering with and listening to their communities.

The 2026 event featured 47 presentations from frontline healthcare workers, researchers and administrators as well as 53 ePoster displays – and the largest audience in the Showcase’s 10-year history.

Our key themes were:

  • Seamless journeys in remote care - Rural and Remote Innovations
  • Smart systems for smart care - Digital and virtual innovations
  • Workforce without walls - Workforce innovations
  • From referral to recovery - Patient flow and access innovations

From AI models enabling improved patient connection to healthcare teams hitting the road by bus in rural areas, we heard presentations from those thinking outside the box and making real change happen in their communities.

If you weren’t able to join us, there was a presentation you missed, one that piqued your interest or someone you didn’t get to talk to, you can find all the presentations and ePosters on the  CEQ Improvement Exchange (filter - topic: Showcase 2026).

The Improvement Exchange allows us to share our work outside of events like the Showcase, so be sure to check back throughout the year for updates, improvements and new projects.

The Clinical Excellence Showcase will be back in 2027 – we’ll see you there!
