Event Description
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 travel-related diseases: More common than you think! What to do.
Join us again for another in the series on envenomations, intoxications and bites in the Southwest. This session will focus on venomous snake species causing problems.
