2004 FAPA Annual Recertification Review & Winter Symposium
February 18-22, 2004 Grosvenor Resort 1850 Hotel Plaza Blvd. Lake Buena Vista, Florida 32830
The FAPA Conference Planning Committee has put together another outstanding conference. It will
offer 46 hours of Continuing Medical Education (AAPA Category I approval pending) with the
possibility of obtaining 32 hours of CME if one attends all lectures that one can. The program has been
approved for 32 hours of contact hours by the Florida Board of Nursing also.
Lectures will include the state required courses for license renewal on HIV Update, Domestic Violence, and the two
hour Medical Errors Course. The three hour Prescriptive Practice Course (required for initial prescribing license
application) will be available also thru self study.
We have some excellent lectures planned. You won't want to miss the Medical Pearles lectures with Dr. Mort
Diamond, MD from Nova Southeastern University. We will have a mock
recertification exam for those who desire to test their skills. And as boring as some people may feel it might be, we guarantee
the Medical Errors lecture by Steve Cohen, PA-C, will be very informative and enlightening and one no one will want
to sleep through. And the Domestic Violence lecture is a real eye opener as well. And we will offer a FAPA Town Hall Meeting
for everyone to learn about what is happening in Florida on the political arena that may affect PAs practicing here.
There will be some free time to enjoy local attractions too for those who care to do so.
The Preliminary Program for the Winter Symposium is available online. It was mailed the
second week in December to members and those on the mailing list. Here is a link to an
online copy of the preliminary program brochure:

snowy" North! And you will not have to dig out of any snow while you are here, that we can promise.
