ForwardSRC's Pediatric Orthopedic Education Symposium (POES) - Special Edition (JS2602E)
Strong bones are essential for lifelong mobility and quality of life. Many children with complex medical or genetic conditions require specialized care to achieve optimal bone health. POES Special Edition will include a full seminar day focused on skeletal disorders while the 2nd half day seminar will cover basic orthopedic concepts for the primary care provider in both didactic lectures and hands on exams. Day One brings experts in pediatric and adult skeletal disorders. Attendees will gain insights into precision medicine, treatment strategies, prevention, and research — while networking across disciplines to improve outcomes for children with bone health challenges. Day 2 will be the traditional Pediatric Orthopedic Education Symposium designed to train on the skills that will enable you to perform a detailed examination and to diagnose and treat or refer. Both Days are tailored for pediatricians, family practitioners, physician assistants, advanced practice nurses and allied health professionals.
