Just as I think many of us were hoping that with increasing vaccine administration and children returning to school, we were potentially on the other side of this pandemic. Unfortunately, we have been hit hard here again in Ohio. We know you are swimming upstream, so we designed this year’s meeting with your needs in mind, and with the following key takeaways for YOU as you pick up the pieces from the pandemic:

  • JUST ADDED! Hot Topic session on COVID-19 vaccine implementation in your practice: vaccine best practices, parental hesitancy, and open dialogue on how Ohio AAP can help you preserve the medical home during the pandemic!
  • Keynote Presentation: 25% of teens who almost died from suicide say that less than 5 minutes passed between the time they decided to kill themselves and the attempt. Ohio AAP has assembled a multi-disciplinary panel of medical and lived experience experts, including teens, to discuss de-escalation techniques and preparing yourself to help children and families during a challenging mental health crisis. You will leave with proven, quick, and easy tools and techniques to use with children and adolescents in a mental health crisis.
  • Create supportive and inclusive spaces for Ohio youth within the LGBTQ+ community and utilize Ohio AAP and State Resources to address risks.
  • 1 in 4,000 children are diagnosed with MIS-C, over half of these children have evidence of myocarditis or cardiac dysfunction. Hear case studies on cardiovascular/GI complications and long-haul COVID symptoms in patients that could present in your office.
  • Obesity rates continue to rise following schedule and lifestyle disruptions during the pandemic. Learn tips to address obesity, health routines and motivational interviewing to assure our children stay healthy and active.
  • Additional topics include hot topic advocacy action plans, common GI issues and the Top 10 Pediatric journal articles from Ohio Pediatricians that can change the way you practice.

NEW incentives this year include:

  • Over $2,000 in gift cards available as prize incentives to visit our 30 virtual exhibitors!
  • Our popular Conference in a Box is BACK, register by October 11, 2021, to assure that you receive your exciting package with Ohio AAP and industry SWAG and hard copies of resources and materials by the conference. 5 boxes will include a GOLDEN TICKET that entitles you to a $100 gift card as a special prize!
