Other issues on the agenda include the deadlines for compliance with various provisions of the Safe Patient-Handling Law.

Feel free to invite others from your hospital (e.g. administrators and direct care, policy, and public relations staff) to participate.  Participation in the web conference is free.  All you need is a computer with an internet connection and a telephone. Slides will be available at www.wsha.org under the web cast section prior to the presentation
