OMS featured at MS Trust Conference Monday 14th November 2011 Kenilworth UK The MS Trust Conference is an annual MS event aimed specifically at nurses and allied health professionals working with people with MS. At this year's event on Monday 14th November 2011 in Kenilworth UK (http://bit.ly/oYcJQu), OMS will have a stand in the Info Zone where we will be promoting OMS to health professionals (mainly MS nurses and physiotherapists) working with people with MS.

Though the OMS approach is well established in Australia and New Zealand, and often now recommended to people with MS, there is little awareness of the approach in the UK. Our aim is to introduce OMS to health practitioners in the UK so they will be able to pass the information onto the people with MS they see.

The OMS stand will give out copies of the OMS book to MS nurses, hand out pamphlets describing and promoting OMS, show copies of the 1 and 2.5 year follow up data research paper published in the UK journal Quality in Primary Care in 2010, give out small laminated copies of the OMS recovery program summary, show the ABC TV's 7.30 report on Prof Jelinek's research data, and have people with MS answering questions.

This is sure to be an important opportunity for OMS to be better known among health professionals and people with MS in the UK.  You will find a copy of the leaflet we will be giving out in downloadable pdf format above.
