US Chapter of the Fragility Fracture Network (FFN), FFN USA
In February 2023, the IGFS proudly announced its official designation as the US Chapter of the Fragility Fracture Network (FFN), known as FFN USA. This promising collaboration will provide enhanced educational programming and resources for IGFS members as we work together with the FFN to advance Geriatric Fracture Care.
The FFN recognizes that clinical change takes place at a national level and as such they have formed strategic partnerships with organizations that have an interest and mandate to improve care for patients with fragility fractures in their jurisdictions.
In recognition of this partnership, the IGFS has decided to significantly reduce our annual membership dues in an effort to expand our movement throughout the US. Membership in the IGFS is now $50 for all clinicians. And remains free for trainees.
Membership in the FFN is free, so IGFS members will simply have to register for the FFN to start to receive enhanced benefits.
Membership in IGFS/FFN USA and FFN Globally is open to any professional that has an interest in joining our cause. That includes: orthopaedics, geriatrics, endocrinologists, rheumatologists, and other physicians that provide geriatric care e.g., internal medicine; Rehabilitation: physiotherapy; occupational therapy; physiatry; Nursing; Dieticians; Scientists involved in study of post fracture care and practices; and others involved in improving care for fracture patients.
Your IGFS is extremely pleased with the promise this new partnership holds and we look forward to maximizing its impact on fracture care delivery in the US.
