Audio conferences target disasters, disclosure
Have you missed one of Thomson American Health Consultants’ recent audio conferences? If so, two upcoming conference replays offer another opportunity to take advantage of excellent continuing education opportunities for your entire facility. Disaster Response at Ground Zero: How NYU Downtown Hospital Handled Mass Casualties With All Systems Down, originally held on Jan. 10, takes participants to the heart of the World Trade Center disaster on Sept. 11.
Just a few blocks away from the crash site, NYU Downtown was cut off from crucial life- saving supplies and power, even as hundreds of injured came through the emergency department doors. HazMat teams on the roof of the hospital had to vacuum all of the debris out of air ducts to maintain air quality and keep generators running. Physicians and nurses had to balance urgent care with proper documentation.
Learn how to prepare your facility for the unthinkable. The replay will be available from 8:30 a.m. ET on Tuesday, April 16, to 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 17. Current Thomson American Health Consultants subscribers pay $249, which includes free CME and CE credit. The cost is $299 for nonsubscribers.
On April 23 and 24, What to Say When Something Goes Wrong: Do the Right Thing When Trouble Strikes also will be available for replay. This successful audio conference covers the major fears clinicians experience when confronting issues of medical disclosure. Learn benefits for patient and provider, as well as the risks of litigation and how to avoid costly legal battles. Free CE for your entire facility is included in the $249 fee for Thomson American Health Consultants subscribers.
To register for either one of these replays, contact Thomson American Health Consultants’ customer service department at (800) 688-2421 or by e-mail at [email protected]. Customer service representatives will provide you with all of the necessary information on dial-in procedure and how to download conference handouts and material on line.
