Nurse Practitioners' Association of Ontario

In 1998 it changed its mandate to include NPs in all levels of health care: primary, secondary and tertiary care. NPAO is served by a voluntary Board elected by the membership. NPAO sponsors an annual conference, maintains the web site, p

ublishes a regular e-newsletter, facilitates local continuing education programs and offers five awards/bursaries to members.

Join us on June 10 at 12 PM for Mastering Everyday Foot & Lower-Limb Conditions
https://loom.ly/pa0Sx-o

This webinar sets the foundation for the hands-on pre-conference workshop. Come prepared, confident, and ready to get even more out of the in-person session. Perfect for NPs who want practical tools, clearer referral pathways, and better outcomes for patients with foot and lower-limb pain.

You’ll learn:
• When to treat in clinic vs. when a biomechanical referral adds value
• What happens when your patient is assessed in our system
• Early management strategies you can apply immediately
• How our continuous data loop supports your care plan
