TEACHING THE UNTHINKABLE
KEYNOTE: Why Teach Health Professionals about Emergency Preparedness? This session includes a peek at emerging CAAHEP Standards language.
The workshop agenda includes examples of existing training efforts and curricula -- including the AMA's NATIONAL DISASTER LIFE SUPPORT PROGRAM and Nova Southeastern University's DISASTER PREPAREDNESS PROGRAM that serves students in 7 professions.
Meet the editor of the first (and only) textbook in this emerging field: EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS FOR HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. CAAHEP is supplying each workshop attendee with a personal copy of the book!
Enjoy time and opportunities for questions, for sharing with colleagues and experts, and for debating issues during roundtable sessions.

Additional opportunity: CAAHEP will publish "Teaching the Unthinkable: The DVD" in March, adapted from the first Teaching the Unthinkable workshop conducted in October, 2007. It will be useful for staff development. And some components will be useful with students. Price will be $139. Buy it along with your conference registration for $79; you'll save $60.
