Dr. Jeff Hess MD is leading an ACOEM Board sponsored task force with the goal to draft a paper for publication in JOEM defining the roles and best practice interactions of an "occupational health team". The Task Force was to have 2 members from each of the following OEM professional groups: OM Physicians, OM PA, OM NPs and OH Nurses.  We have our physician members, but we still need an additional PA (I am the other member) and at least one NP if not 2, in order to move the project forward.

The plan would be to meet one to two times a month to scope out the project, complete research and draft the paper, with the hope of completing the project in 6-8 months.

If anyone is interested, please reach out to me or Dr. Hess at hess.je@comcast.net

Thanks
