Aims and Plans

The focus of FFN-CH is based on four pillars: (1) acute care, (2) rehabilitation, (3) secondary prevention and (4) building of alliances and policy. These goals are to be addressed through educational events, research, networking and fellowships. The first planned events are special FFN-CH sessions at the 84th Annual Congress of Swiss Orthopaedics on June 26, 2024 in Lausanne and at the 6th Swiss Orthogeriatrics Day in Lucerne.
