WorkSafeBC is proud to host our first national nursing conference, Changing the Landscape of Disability Management, on May 13, 2009 in Vancouver, B.C.
Join us for an interactive workshop on “Developing Nursing Disability Management Best Practices” with well-known author, Dianne Dyck.
Occupational health nurses and nurses interested in occupational health from across Canada and the Pacific Northwest are invited to attend. Your contributions to the workshop will be part of Dianne's new book, scheduled for release in the fall of 2009. Workshop participants will get a 10% discount on the fourth edition of Dianne's book, Disability Management: Theory, Strategy & Industry Practice.
There will also be a fantastic door prize for a full scholarship for the disability management online course offered at the University of Fredericton.

The following day, on May 14, Dianne will present a workshop on “How to Deal with Disability Claims that have Strong Psychosocial Overtones”.
