Recently Redesigned AAOS Toolkits Offer Key Resources for Orthopaedic Practice

AAOS is proud to unveil its newly redesigned Toolkit Portfolio, consisting of 15 comprehensive toolkits tailored to support orthopaedic surgeons and surgical teams. These toolkits have been meticulously curated to provide a wide array of resources aimed at enhancing clinical practice, improving patient outcomes, and navigating the complexities of healthcare management.

The AAOS Toolkits offer a blend of clinician and patient education materials, evidence-based quality-improvement tools, strategic practice-management insights, and essential advocacy and regulatory information. Designed with the busy healthcare professional in mind, the updated toolkits now feature an intuitive interface that allows for easy navigation, ensuring that users can quickly access the information they need to address specific orthopaedic challenges.

Each toolkit within the portfolio is dedicated to a distinct aspect of orthopaedic practice, empowering clinicians to stay informed and equipped with the latest knowledge and best practices. Whether you are looking to enhance surgical techniques, optimize patient care pathways, or stay ahead of regulatory changes, the AAOS Toolkits provide the tools and guidance necessary to succeed.

The portfolio also includes two newly added toolkits: the Wellness for Healthcare Professionals Toolkit, which provides valuable resources for addressing burnout, mental health, and resilience, supporting clinicians as they manage the emotional and psychological demands of their profession; and the Workplace Violence Toolkit, which offers practical strategies for preventing, responding to, and recovering from incidents of violence, a growing concern in healthcare. Both toolkits provide crucial support for challenges that impact clinicians’ daily lives, ensuring they have the resources to protect their personal well-being and maintain a safe work environment.

Explore the updated AAOS Toolkit Portfolio today and discover how these resources can support your commitment to excellence in orthopaedic care.
