At its meeting on March 16, the OSAP Board voted to accept CleanKeys as a new corporate member. CleanKeys expertise is in aseptic computer keyboard technology and they will be featuring their new designs at the OSAP Symposium in Tampa.
Organization considering name change
OSAP is working hard to increase its value to its members and to the dental community. Part of that process is to ensure immediate recognition of OSAP's purpose. The OSAP Board is weighing a change to the full name while still maintaining the OSAP acronym. The proposed name is the Organization for Safety And Prevention. Let us know what you think by clicking HERE. New member benefit
