April 2004 AAOS Report
PEMR offers stand-alone to assist in promoting injury prevention, health and wellness
The AAOS Public Education and Media Relations Department
has developed a stand-alone educational booth to assist
in promoting topics related to orthopaedic injury prevention,
health and wellness. This 5' x 6' tabletop booth features
several interchangeable panels with images from the
Academy's public service announcement campaigns along
with tips on topics such as ACL injuries, preventing
falls and the importance of daily exercise. The booth
is an excellent tool to help state and local orthopaedic
societies highlight injury prevention and wellness
messages, and can be used at special events, meetings,
lectures, seminars, and trade shows. The booth is free
to use on a first-come, first served basis and can
be reserved for up to a month's time. All shipping
charges incurred to and from the Academy are the responsibility
of the organization using the booth.
