ATSDR Training Sessions:
Association Between Illness and Environmental Exposures
Health-care professionals increasingly must diagnose and treat
illnesses caused by exposure to hazardous substances. On November
9 and 10, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry will
sponsor a training program to inform health professionals about
using health assessments to determine the adverse health
implications of hazardous exposures. The course is designed for
physicians, nurses, and other public health professionals such as
epidemiologists, toxicologists, and sanitarians.
The training program will include a 1-day general session to
discuss the basic components of the health-assessment process and
a 1-day advanced session to address specific case studies of
environmental exposure. Participants will receive a syllabus
containing instructional material.
The program will be held at the American Public Health
Association (APHA) meeting in Atlanta. Applicants may register
through the Continuing Education Program, APHA, 1015 15th Street,
NW, Washington, DC 20005; telephone (202) 789-5622; fax (202)
789-5661.
