From our partners at the BRIC:
Join us for the groundbreaking 3-day BRIC Institute launch event from November 7th-9th in St. Louis, MO. This transformative conference aims to inspire healthcare professionals, policymakers, and community leaders both locally and across the country to adopt the BRIC Model for healing Bullet Related Injuries (BRI).
Watch a short video with Dr. Punch to learn about the institute:
Beyond learning about the Institute's ongoing training opportunities and member resources, attendees will gain hands-on training, new connections, and practical tools to begin implementing holistic BRI care in their own settings, promoting healing and better outcomes for patients.
Be sure to register before seats fill up and ticket sales close on October 7th! Attendees also receive a link to share with colleagues to watch the Friday Keynote virtually.
