Emergency Medicine Days in Tallahassee 2009

20th Annual
Emergency Medicine Days

March 9-11, 2009
The DoubleTree Hotel

Emergency Medicine Days in Tallahassee is the premier advocacy event each year for The Florida College of Emergency Physicians.  All members are invited each spring to our state capital to spend time face-to-face with their legislators, lobbying for legislation that will provide better access to quality care for our patients. At EM Days, FCEP members gather with their colleagues, lobby for a better emergency medicine climate in Florida and earn CME credit in our educational programs. Registration is FREE and special hotel rates are available for a limited reservation period.
