Culture can make or break individuals, teams, and organizations. Healthcare is no exception.
Culture influences our beliefs, practices and behaviors of consumers, providers and its purveyors in the healthcare landscape.
Join us for dynamic and nationally recognized expert interactive presentations, group activities and thought-provoking discussions on healthcare cultures that drive the practice of medicine today.
You and your family and peers are invited to engage in a comprehensive program highlighting the Native American experience at the Sheraton Wild Horse Pass Resort in Phoenix, celebrating both the AO and the spirit and culture of the Gila River community. We have activities planned throughout each day that will further enrich your experience at the resort.
One AO 2022 is a unique learning and cultural experience that you won’t want to miss.

• Improve competence by applying advances of knowledge in patient care in the areas of trauma, degenerative disorders, deformities, tumors, and reconstructive surgical techniques
• Address practice performance gaps by improving management of aspects of traumatic injuries and musculoskeletal disorders (i.e., pre-operative planning to post-operative care)
