Health-care providers and first responders are invited to a two-day symposium April 27 and 28 at the Gering Civic Center, 1050 M Street in Gering. The 2nd Annual Gering Bioterrorism Symposium will provide education about bioterrorism-related illnesses, as well as treatments for those illnesses.
Registration deadline is April 13.
\n

We had a tremendous turnout for the symposia this past year, and overall, the comments from the symposia were very good, said RHEN Director Roxanna Jokela. We hope to provide an even better educational experience this year.
\n

RHEN coordinates the symposia, which are sponsored by the Nebraska Bioterrorism Education Consortium. Co-sponsor of the event is Panhandle Community Services in association with the Panhandle Area Health Education Center. Participants will learn an overview of bioterrorism issues, how to facilitate community planning, and learn about roles and responsibilities of leadership in a bioterrorism event.
\n

The first day of each symposium includes a general session with a group tabletop discussion. The second day includes general-session speakers and breakout sessions.
\n

Continuing education credit is available for the symposia. Participants may register for one or both days at $15 per day, which includes lunch.
Each symposium is limited to 200 participants per site. The first day of each symposium will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with the second day scheduled from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
\n

Pre-registration is required, and must be completed by five business days before each symposium. Registration information is available at www.unmc.edu\/RHEN\/bt04.htm. For further information, e-mail Jokela at rjokela@unmc.edu.
