The practice and delivery of health care is changing with an emphasis on improving quality, safety, efficiency and access to care. Telemedicine can help you achieve these goals! The Arizona Telemedicine Program and Southwest Telehealth Resource Center invite you to a free one-hour CME webinar on the implementation and practice of telemedicine.

Envenomations, intoxications and bites in the Southwest. More common than you think! What to do.

Join us for a series on envenomations, intoxications and bites in the Southwest. The first session will be about "animal poisonings" with presentations about Colorado River toads, sting ray barbs and ciguatera poisoning.

This webinar is made possible through funding provided by Health Resources and Services Administration, Office for the Advancement of Telehealth (U1U42527).
