CAPA is very pleased to announce a new partnership with Exercise is Medicine Canada (EIMC). We believe that “Physical activity is an integral part of prevention and treatment of chronic disease in the Canadian health care system” and that EIMC can help to provide valuable tools and resources to help our members improve the health of Canadians through exercise. To launch this new partnership, Dr. Jonathon Fowles, Faculty, Exercise is Medicine Canada, will present at the 2014 CAPA Annual Conference in Halifax on October 26, 2014. Dr. Fowles will describe the tools and resources EIMC has developed to help PAs and their health professional colleagues to ask about, assess, advise, counsel, prescribe and refer physical activity for chronic disease prevention, management and treatment. We look forward to working with EIMC and welcome them as our newest partner.
