Need Conference Objectives for your Credentialing Office? They'll be here when available:

Educational Objective for the 15th Annual VAPAA CME Conference

The conference serves as a focal point for Physician Assistants who are currently employed within VHA, allowing them to participate in educational sessions focused on improving care within the VA. They are encouraged to network and share solutions to problems encountered in the delivery of care, in the documentation of care, and in the measurements of performance of care. Patient safety, performance measures, communication, and quality care are key objectives of every presentation. Special breakout sessions are being offered to meet the needs of those working at smaller facilities who do not have access to educational programs in the following areas: EKG Interpretation, Casting Techniques, Professional Standards Board Training, and Wound Closure (Suturing) Techniques.

If you have problems downloading or opening the flyer or conference registration form please contact the conference coordinator at the email address above. Some items may not yet be prepared for the web page as of this date. We'll get them on here just as soon as they're ready. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Thank you.
