Dear List Members,
See below the link to the upcoming webinar presented by AIUM on prevention of work related injuries in sonographers. The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, recently promulgated a guidance document that medical facilities may
utilize to help reduce the high incidence of injuries in these health care workers. Recently there was a grand challenge to reduce these injuries, much like what nurses have done related to lifting injuries. If you have some time on Thursday evening I hope
you can join us for this webinar. Would love to see these injuries reduced over the coming years! See the link here:
