California Public Protection and Physician Health. Inc. (CPPPH) is hosting two fall workshops for hospital medical staffs and groups interested in physician health and well-being. The workshops will be held in Oakland on Saturday, October 7, and in Los Angeles on Saturday, November 4.

The workshop, "Effective Functioning of Wellbeing Committees," is intended for hospital medical staff, medical groups, specialty societies, and others involved or interested in improving the health and well-being of physicians. Workshop topics include:

• How to handle the first meeting with a physician when it is about disruptive behavior or aging
• What records the committee should keep
• What the committee should be reporting to the medical executive committee and what medical staff bylaws say about it

Physicians attending can receive 7 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.
