The Shoulder Complex is organized by Therapy Network Seminars (TNS) and will be held from Nov 14 - 15, 2020 at ohnston-Willis Hospital Emergency Room, Richmond, Virginia, United States of America. Target Audience: This course is intended for PTs, PTAs, OTs, OTAs, and ATs Educational Credit: A certificate of attendance for 15 Contact Hourswill be awarded to each participant. All Therapy Network Seminars are pre‐approved for CEUs in the state where the course is conducted when required for PT, OT, ATs & Assistants. Seminar Description: Successful evaluation and treatment of the shoulder complex entails an accurate understanding of its normal and abnormal anatomy, pathomechanics and biomechanics. Treatment of the shoulder can be complex and confusing based upon the multitude of approaches that exist.  By utilizing a systematic approach, therapists and athletic trainers may focus on a problem-solving basis to accurately and successfully evaluate patients with a variety of shoulder conditions. Included in this two-day workshop is an overview of the most common orthopedic conditions in which therapeutic intervention is indicated, evaluation and treatment schemes to promote successful outcomes and significant lab time. Attendees will further their development involving effective evaluation and treatment (surgical as well as non-surgical); including differential diagnosis, manual therapy, exercise prescription and evidence supported treatment techniques for the shoulder proper. Objectives: • Identify evidence supported treatment techniques used in shoulder rehabilitation • Perform modified examination techniques and “special test” based upon history, screening and stage of the condition e.g. acute vs chronic • Perform modified examination techniques and “special test” based upon history, screening and stage of the condition e.g. acute vs chronic • Perform basic and advanced mobilization and other manual therapy techniques to help facilitate normal recovery. • Demonstrate appropriate exercise prescription and dosing based on the stage of the condition and the recovery process. Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.

Dental Radiation Safety Certification is organized by Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) School of Dentistry and will be held on Nov 14, 2020 at VCU School of Dentistry, Richmond, Virginia, United States Of America.This Course has been approved with a maximum of 4 CEUs Course Description and Topics: This course will provide the dental auxiliary with knowledge regarding the production and safe use of ionizing radiation within the dental office. This course will satisfy the Virginia Board of Dentistry's Radiation Certification requirement. • The nature of radiation and types of interaction of radiation with matter will be presented. • The nature of various natural and man-made radiation and occupational and nonoccupational dose limits will be discussed. • The principles of justification, optimization and dose limitation for patient radiation protection will be illustrated by a review of patient selection criteria, imaging modalities, source-to-skin distance, rectangular collimation, filtration, constant potential x-ray machines, kVp, mAs, film and sensor-holding devices, leaded aprons and collars. • Risks vs. diagnostic benefits of dental radiographs and the subject of retake radiographs will be covered. • Operator (personnel) radiation protection will include the basic methods to reduce occupational exposure, inclusive of position, distance, shielding and radiation dosimetry. • Examples of radiation-induced damage will be reviewed, along with a discussion of the known and unknown effects of low-dose radiation. • Finally, the need for continuing education on radiation safety and protection as new information is acquired will be stressed, as acquiring knowledge and developing and maintaining skills is a life-long process. Educational Objectives:  At the end of the course, the attendee should be able to: • Describe how ionizing radiation is produced in an x-ray generator. • Discuss the various modes of interaction of radiation with matter. • Discuss selection criteria for dental radiographic studies. • Describe occupational and public dose limits. • Discuss practical principles of radiation protection for the patient and for the operator. • Describe circumstances under which retake radiographs should be made. • Discuss effects of low-dose radiation

BLS Renewal Course is organized by Virginia CommonWealth University (VCU) Center for Trauma and Critical Care Education (CTCCE) and will be held on Nov 17, 2020 at CTCCE, Richmond, Virginia, United States of America.
