The American Academy of Physician Assistants in Occupational Medicine
(AAPA-OM) was founded in 1981 as an educational organization
to represent physician assistants
(PAs) who share a common interest and role in the care of
the working person and prevention of workplace illness and injury.
In addition to serving as the voice and advocate of PAs in occupational
medicine, AAPA-OM strives to promote continuing education for
its members, to provide PA employment information to Occupational
Medicine physicians, and to strengthen the role of PAs by supporting
and encouraging membership in AAPA
and other occupational medicine societies.
Membership has its privileges, and in AAPA-OM that means a quarterly
AAPA-OM newsletter, a membership directory, an annual business
meeting, and CME opportunities at AAPA's Annual PA Conference.
Additionally, AAPA-OM offers an opportunity for leadership.
The organization is led by a board
of directors that includes a president, president-elect,
vice president, past president, secretary, and treasurer. They
are elected annually and take office on July 1. Members can
also become involved on one of the various board committees:
newsletter, membership, legislative affairs, or conference planning.
AAPA-OM
serves its members by providing a forum for exchange of information
and ideas to ensure delivery of the highest quality, state-of-the-art
preventive services. In order to maintain safe and healthy
workers and work environments, we strive to form mutually
beneficial relationships with other occupational health and
safety professionals. We endorse and support the code
of ethical conduct as established by the American College
of Occupational Medicine.
