2007 Conference Agenda
Every year, the CA-NV Chapter puts on what we feel is one of the finest conferences on correctional healthcare in the country. In addition to providing insight and information on the latest ideas in providing healthcare to our clientele, the conferences also provide invaluable opportunities for networking.
We are happy to have the Institute for Medical Quality as co-hosts for this year's conference!
