Postponement of 10th Annual Maine Patient Safety Academy on March 30th

A tough decision as made to postpone the 10th Annual Maine Patient Safety Academy which was scheduled to take place on March 30, 2020 at the University of Southern Maine, Abromson Center. While the current COVID-19 situation in Maine does not call for cancellation of public events, we are taking action out of respect for the many healthcare and public health conference attendees who are fully dedicated to the priorities of preparation and planning for COVID-19. A number of our presenters are now unable to participate due to their responsibilities to their respective organizations. At this time, our plan is to put the Academy on hold and reassess the situation later in the spring. With your kind permission, we will leave registrations active instead of immediately instituting a refund process. Once the Academy is rescheduled, registrants will be notified and offered the opportunity to opt out and request a refund if desired. We remain confident that we will reschedule our amazing plenary speakers and workshop presenters and gather the community of patient safety advocates, healthcare and public health professionals, students and faculty for the 10th Annual Maine Patient Safety Academy in 2020! Thank you for your continued support and understanding. Please reach out to us (http://mainepatientsafetyacademy.org/), if you have any questions.
