About British Orthopaedic Association
The British Orthopaedic Association (BOA) is the Surgical Specialty Association for Trauma and Orthopaedics in the UK.
British Orthopaedic Association Description
Our mission is to advance for the public benefit the practice, art and science of orthopaedic surgery. To do this we have designed a strategy focused on our core objectives of excellence in professional practice, training and education, and research.
For each core objective we are currently developing a five year plan that sets out short, medium and long term deliverables. We review progress in each area periodically throughout the year, culminating with an annual report to Council. Because of the pace of change across the health care system we keep that report light on words and long on substance in the form of a presentation: effectively it becomes a decision support tool to inform future priorities across our three core objectives.
