The Saskatchewan Thoracic Society is the health professionals section of the Saskatchewan Lung Association. The Society strives to promote optimal respiratory health care through education and awareness.
Membership is open to Saskatchewan health professionals who have an interest in lung health.
The current membership includes physicians, respirologists, nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists, dieticians, pharmacists and health science undergraduate and postgraduate students and trainees. The Saskatchewan Thoracic Society holds an Education Day each year in conjunction with its annual meeting. The Ferguson Lectureship, established in honour of Dr. R. George Ferguson, the former Medical Superintendent of the Saskatchewan Anti-Tuberculosis League, is held at the conference. Attendance was up significantly from the previous year's event. A special thank you to our speakers and sponsors who helped to make our education day possible.
