50 Countries Now Represented In The CTF Network

Capture the Fracture Austria FLS Map of Best Practice

This month, the Capture the Fracture® (CTF) program had the pleasure of welcoming Austria to the Map of Best Practice. Hanusch-Krankenhaus is the first Austrian Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) to be displayed on the Map of Best Practice. This represents a milestone for the CTF Network, which now includes FLS from 50 countries around the world.

IS YOUR FRACTURE LIAISON SERVICE (FLS) MAPPED?

FLS which apply for ‘Best Practice Recognition’ are assessed by CTF experts after completing the BPF Questionnaire, which reflects the thirteen BPF Standards. These FLS receive a corresponding Certificate of Achievement and their service receives recognition on the global ‘Map of Best Practice’. Click here to learn more.
