Ontario Rett Syndrome Association

The 2010 “Building Bridges” conference is fast approaching. A provincial conference is held every two years and in a different region of Ontario. The 2010 conference hosts are the Eastern Ontario Chapter.  The Ontario Rett Syndrome Association is very proud to share all that is offered at the up coming conference.

Grand Rounds are being sponsored by the Ontario Rett Syndrome Association (ORSA) and will be held at 12:00 PM, Friday, Sept 17, 2010 in the Auditorium at Kingston General Hospital. The Rounds will provide an opportunity for health professionals to find out the latest in diagnosis and treatment recommendations from Canada’s leading clinicians in Rett Syndrome. Teleconferencing / videoconferencing may be made available depending on demand.

On the afternoon of Friday, September 17th, we are pleased to offer once again clinic appointments of 30 minutes duration. Families/caregivers can ask questions, receive feedback, recommendations and a diagnosis if applicable.

On Friday evening there will be a family treasure hunt. Once each family “team” completes the hunt, the team will be entered for a draw.
