As a provider accredited by the ACCME, ACOEM is responsible for ensuring our education is fair and balanced and that any clinical content presented supports safe, effective patient care. As such, ACOEM must include an original release date and a termination (expiration) date on products.  Content must either be reviewed once every three years or expire after three years, which is why courses have an expiration date. This date not only denotes when the course will no longer be available to new users but also includes the final date to claim AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. While there is a possibility that a course will be renewed for an additional three years – and a new expiration date posted – this will not be determined until a review is conducted.

A course that has already been purchased but exceeds the expiration date can still be completed and/or reviewed, but a learner may no longer be able to claim the AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ associated with the course. 

If you have questions, please contact educationinfo@acoem.org.

Upon completion of this educational activity, learners should be able to:

  • Interpret long-term global and regional trends in the burden of environmental heat and cold exposure (EHCE) in older adults from 1990 to 2021.
  • Identify key sociodemographic and geographic disparities in the EHCE burden, particularly regarding gender, age, and socioeconomic development.
  • Apply the findings to critically evaluate EHCE burden patterns and inform the development of targeted public health adaptation strategies by 2030 

     

This activity is designed for physicians and other healthcare professionals who specialize in or have an interest in OEM. Advanced practitioners such as industrial hygienists, safety professionals and environmental health specialists will receive value from participating in the activity.
