Event Details

Description

Please join us at MAHEC Fall 2024, in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, or from the comfort of your own home via Webex, for a one-of-a-kind conference.

Our speakers represent a wide variety of healthcare disciplines. You will have the opportunity to learn more about the latest in robotic surgery, same day surgery, patient optimization, orthopaedic trauma, and self-care. Along with learning some exciting things about orthopaedic care, you will have the opportunity to network with other orthopaedic care providers and submit questions to an expert panel of speakers.

This will be a continuing education activity for nurses, occupational therapists/assistants, and physical therapists/assistants to achieve contact hours. We look forward to having you participate in this educational event.
