Upcoming Oley Events
Using Your Story as a Catalyst for Change
MARCH 29, 2024 • 6:00 PM / 9:00 PM
(Rescheduled from March 22 to March 29.)
We recognize that each patient carries a unique narrative of resilience, strength, and triumph over adversity. The goal of this interactive workshop is to empower patients to articulate their stories in a way that has the potential to have a significant impact on a systemic level. By emphasizing the shortcomings in the healthcare system and illustrating the personal implications, we will work together to create narratives that contribute to the larger discussion around changing that system.
Tips, Tricks, Policies & Protocols for Traveling with Nutrition Support
APRIL 26, 2024 • 6:00 PM / 9:00 PM
Travel is a topic we’ve covered a number of times, and that is because we have such a diverse membership population, some of whom have traveled the world and some of whom might be traveling with a tube for the first time.
We’ll use part of the time to share some basic tips and tricks we’ve gathered along the way, but also dive deeper into the difference between domestic and international travel, driving versus flying, pharmacy policies, and other things that may be helpful to know, especially with the 2024 Oley Annual Conference less than two months away!
