To accomplish the Orthopaedic Foundation for Active Lifestyle's goals, a BioSkills Laboratory facility was included in the design
of the Orthopaedic Foundation for Active Lifestyles site. This laboratory contains six dry/wet stations and one pro-session
area that will accommodate 6-24 physicians in training on site. Each workstation is supplied with suction, irrigation and electrical
power. The Foundation also provides adjunct training areas, including its board room, to allow off site training for additional
12-18 physicians per session. The BioSkills Laboratory is electronically capable of offering educational seminars and anatomy
workshops to physicians, researchers and fellows participating off site at teaching hospitals and universities -- literally
throughout the world. Off site participants will be able to view, discuss and interact during these technical presentations
through T1 line live feed capabilities.
In May 2010 our Bioskills lab has recently been updated with state of the art equipment. To schedule a Lab at our facility or to receive an Estimate, pls contact Janine Bahar at 203-869-2002 ext 403 or jbahar@ofals.org
Our Bioskills Lab is conveniently located 15 minutes from White Plains airport, 45 minutes from JFK and LaGuardia and we are 2 minutes from the Metro North train station and a 35 minute train ride into NYC.
