Monash Certificate in Clinical Occupational Medicine

For occupational medicine trainees, GPs and other medical practitioners who assess and manage patients with work-related problems

Twenty medical practitioners attended the first Monash Certificate in Clinical Occupational Medicine, held from 22nd to 26th June 2009 in Melbourne. Coordinated by Dr David Fish and presented by some of Australia's leading occupational health experts, the course aims to provide medical practitioners with the knowledge and skills to:

• Diagnose and manage common occupational injuries & diseases
• Document and investigate complex and less common problems in occupational medicine
• Perform a medical assessment, including history and examination, aimed at pre-placement, medical surveillance or return to work
• Write a medicolegal report

An optional assessment gives attendees the option of applying for AFOEM MOPS and RACGP QA&CPD points.

Dates for 2010 have now been set! The course will be held in Melbourne over five days, from 7th-11th June 2010.
