In 2011, the Nebraska Medical Association's Childhood Obesity Prevention Project, in collaboration with the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services, Creighton University School of Medicine, and Teach a Kid to Fish, will host the "Foster Healthy Weight in Youth Webinar Series". Specifically, the series will consist of six webinars throughout 2011, focusing on the comorbidities of childhood obesity.
All webinars will be held live from noon-1pm, CST and will offer 1 hour of FREE CME for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, and dieticians. The webinars will then be offered as an encore for two years on the NMA's COPP website.
The first webinar was held on January 18, 2011. Dr. Sandra Hassink, Director, Nemours Pediatric Obesity Initiative, AI DuPont Hospital for Children, presented "Associated Comorbities of Childhood Obesity".
