​Fall is the season for conferences, and the most exciting one for us is #NaRCAD2017: Combatting Threats to Optimal Care! 

This year’s conference is a great chance for everyone interested in AD to learn more, whether you’re part of a long-standing program or just beginning to learn about the versatility and effectiveness of implementing this strategy to improve health outcomes. Our agenda is up, so take a peek, and register if you haven’t yet!

Picture
The keynote presentations will provide critical insights for creating and sustaining AD programs in different settings. Dr. Zoe Edelstein will kick off Day 1’s programming, representing the New York Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. This keynote will teach us about their public health detailing intervention to increase use of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).  The New York program was originally founded in 2002, so Dr. Edelstein’s presentation will help anyone from a public health background understand how to both develop and sustain AD, and to adapt it for new and pressing health challenges. ​

Dr. Carol Havens from Kaiser Permanente will provide a detailed overview of the longest-running AD program in the US, a program that was developed with input from Jerry Avorn soon after the original AD studies were published.
​

​We look forward to being inspired by lessons learned from a leading integrated health care system’s ongoing commitment to improving the quality of care around opioid safety with clinical outreach education.

The rest of our conference agenda draws almost entirely from proposals submitted by members of our NaRCAD network – we received twice as many proposals this year!

We’re looking forward to our “Field Presentations” sessions, featuring empiric results from detailers on the ground; expert panelists from the CDC, state departments of public health, and clinical care sharing important impressions on clinician stigma on the critical issues of HIV prevention and opioid safety; and breakout sessions covering many of the practical issues and challenges that detailers face when bringing best evidence to clinicians. Of course, for many of us, the highlight of each conference is the annual update from Jerry Avorn on the state of AD--see his recent blog piece, “Who Do You Trust?” for a preview of what’s to come!
Picture
The NaRCAD team is excited by the knowledge that integral opportunities, connections, and partnerships will be created at our unique 2-day event.​ But as excited as our team and our extended community may be about the conference, it’s not the only terrific development underway at NaRCAD this fall. We’ve continued to provide training and support for groups from around the country and the globe, with 2 trainings in the techniques of AD this past September, and more planned this fall and winter! ​Keep your eyes on our Training Series page for the official announcement of our Spring 2018 AD techniques training, and contact us at any time about opportunities and resources to support your AD program.

See you soon,
-Mike

I was having Herpes Simplex Virus then I came across a review of people testifying how they got cured and got rid of Herpes completely from their body by using Dr Osato herbal medicine. So I contacted him through his email and explained my problem to him. He told me all the things I needed to do and he sent the herbal medicine to me through UPS and he also gave me instructions on how to take the herbal medicine, which I rightly followed. After I finished taking the cure, I went for a checkup and my result was Negative and all the symptoms of herpes were completely gone from my body. If you are down with any of the following diseases/viruses like HERPES-1&2, HIV, HPV, LOW SPERM, DIABETES, CANCER, PENIS ENLARGEMENT or any other disease or ailment I recommend you to contact this great herbalist called Dr Osato he uses natural herbs to cure diseases/viruses. Be rest assured you will surely testify like the way I am doing right now by writing this amazing testimony. You can contact Dr Osato via email: osatoherbalcure@gmail.com or through WhatsApp +2347051705853.
