Conference Co-Chair

The California Disaster Medical Response and Management Conference is developed through a collaboration of leading California physicians, nurses, paramedics, business professionals, disaster medical mangers, and response authorities. It provides a dynamic forum for the delivery of high value disaster educational content to the west coast based responder, clinician, planner, and/or manager.

Medical Director, OCFA
Conference Co-Chair

Whether you work in a hospital, for a government agency, a transport company, in private industry, or are just interested in the medical response or planning, the California Disaster Medical Response and Management Conference has educational topics that will enlighten you and challenge your thinking about disasters. Real-time contemporary & emerging threat identification, the role of ethics in disasters, and issues in disaster evacuation and displacement are examples of the subject material you'll find covered at this year's conference.

When the status-quo isn't the answer, look to the California Disaster Medical Response and Management Conference to give you information that helps fill the gaps between planning and response and bridge the boundaries brought about by merging new ideas with age old routines. Please join us for a dynamic, one-of-a-kind, educational event - May 13-15, 2009, at the Palm Springs Convention Center, Palm Springs, CA.

California Disaster Medical Response and Management Conference is approved for up to 16-hours POST, EMS & BRN Continuing Education Credit.
