It feels as though we just left a fantastic 2018 Annual Meeting, and we are deep in planning for the next Annual Meeting in Washington D.C. Oct 3-6, 2019. The theme for this meeting is “A Shared Vision: Collaboration for Best Outcomes.” We are working to provide plenary and instructional courses that merge evidence and experience to enable and empower therapists with the knowledge and skills needed to provide the best outcomes for our patients.
Collaboration with the patient, surgeon and other team members is vital to obtaining the best outcome for each individual affected by an upper extremity injury or condition. The call for sessions for one- and two-hour instructional sessions and Pre-Conference Institutes is now open. We encourage submissions that offer updated, current, relevant and evidence-based educational information, especially those that combine therapist and surgeon or other team member presentations. We invite you to consider submitting a presentation, and most importantly we invite you to attend the meeting! Join us in networking and a tremendous educational experience at the 2019 Annual Meeting!
