Functional Medicine Association of North Texas

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization conducts quarterly conferences in dallas with several special events in addition throughout the year. The conference committee, led by a fmant board member, takes the lead in the planning of each conference subject to board approval of all contracts and content. 100% of the board's time, annually, will be spent on planning the conference. The conference focus is on eductation, research and training of health care professionals including physicians and allied health professions emerging research, medical and nutritional scienc, practice tools and techniques as well as business development and technology. Many physicians and allied health professionals are looking for advanced education in emerging research and nutritional science to better address the current health care concerns of their patients. As citizen demand for better outcomes, less medication and more preventative services has increased, these doctors find themselves lacking resources and skills to meet demand. Our conferences are designed to cost-effectively improve the quality of and knowledgebase of practicing health care providers and to improve preventative efforts for citizens by training health care providers in nutrition, lifestyle as cornerstones to medical intervention and to improve health care outcomes. Fmant website: our website is a place to share information about our activities and provide a focal point for skills enhancement for our members. On-line membership and conference registration are also available. Fifty percent of our fmant volunteer's time is spent on developing and maintaining our website, updating event calendars and managing social media to create interest in our organization and increase attendance. The other 50% is assisting with event setup, breakdown and event day activities. Fmant will occasionally engage outside vendors for specific skills and staffing when needed to accommodate operating needs of the organization. The fmant website, www.functionalmedgroup.org, is up and running. It includes information about our upcoming conferences, registration and membership applications, the benefits of membership in our organization. Future looking improvements will include a special area for our members. The members' area will include on-line forums on a variety of topics where members can post questions and get answeres form their peers, other members. As well as a list of members, by region, is available to enhance networking opportunities. Those networking opportunities provide a way to find tried and true solutions from peers 'in the trenches', enhancing a health care providers' efficacy. Reginal conferences: the fmant board encourages growth to other regions to organize regional conferences with the same goals as our current group: to cost-effectively improve the quality of and knowledgebase of practicing health care providers and to improve preventative efforts for citizens by training health care providers in nutrition, lifestyle as cornerstones to medical intervention and to improve health care outcomes. Approximately 30 percent of our time is spent discussing and organizing regional events.
