OAASC 2016 Annual Conference and Infection Prevention Seminar

Last Week for Early Bird Registration Discount

OAASC 2016 Annual Conference Banner 

 Ohio's ONLY conference exclusively for ASC professionals

September 14 -16

 

OAASC members, ASC non-members or companies that work with Ambulatory Surgery Centers in Ohio join us for Ohio's only conference dedicated to ambulatory surgery centers.  We address ALL the issues important to your center and especially focus on those concerns that impact you as an Ohio ASC professional.  There continue to be significant changes in ASC licensure in Ohio.  Our conference will address all of those changes and then some. 

 

On September 14 as a part of our preconference, we will host a full day pre-conference infection prevention training for ASC IP professional.  Remember that every ASC in Ohio (not just Medicare certified centers) must have a dedicated infection prevention staff person who receives ongoing training and provides in-service training to other staff.  This IP training will meet that requirement. And if you attend this as a part of the conference there is a discount.

  

Join your ASC Colleagues from around Ohio for the premier state ASC conference in the Midwest.  September 14-16.

Infection Prevention Training for ASCs

 Full Day Pre-conference Session Sept 14

Accrediting bodies, ODH and Medicare – Oh My! They are cracking down on infection prevention more than ever before! You and your center MUST have ongoing training, have acceptable protocols in place and provide in-service training. Also there are new requirements and checklists that everyone in you center needs to know.

There is only one place in Ohio to get AFFORDABLE training and resources you need for you center. No need to travel to expensive training elsewhere that often covers far more than you and your ASC need when you can get in Ohio.

Our daylong pre-session on Sept.14 from 10:00 – 3:30 in advance of our annual multidisciplinary conference will cover the multitude of issues and concerns facingASC professionals on a wide range of infection prevention topics.

Our Two New National Experts Phenelle Segal, RN, CIC and President of Infection Control Consulting Services and Carol Jorgensen, RN, MSN, MBA and Perioperative Technical Consultant from3M Infection Prevention Division will provide a fast paced, informative packed program that will provide excellent, evidence-based information to help you build and enhance your current IP program or build a new one.

Attendance will meet CMS AND ODH requirements for infection prevention continuing education. All participants will receive a certificate of participation, information for in-service training and continuing education (nursing and BASC).

If you register for the pre-conference session as a part of attending the entire conference you will save an additional $50.

Join Us for the Best ASC-based Infection Prevention Seminar in the Midwest.
