“The SOM is an excellent source of information and support for me as an OH practitioner.  They offer the most up to date information affecting OH practice, including Covid-19 resources, and the networking opportunities have been invaluable.   I would recommend that all OH nurses join. Helen Parsons, OH Nurse”
