Dear Colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that I share with you the results of the recent Board of Directors election.
We welcome Marti Samsel as the incoming SHCA President-Elect. Marti is the Director of Patient & Guest Services at Sparrow Health System in Lansing, Michigan. She has proven leadership and professional acumen to continue to provide our members a strong representation for patient advocacy. We look forward to her term beginning in April 2012 and know that SHCA will continue to flourish under her leadership.
We had a great response from our membership of those desiring to serve on the SHCA Board of Directors for a 2-year term.
Please join me in welcoming the following three members to the SHCA Board:
- Robin Massey, MS - Manager, Service Excellence, Performance Improvement at Peninsula Regional Medical Center - Maryland
- Kim Pedersen - Director of Patient and Guest Relations at Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital - Illinois
- Linda Reiser, RN, MS, PRC, PAAPC - Director, Patient Advocacy at Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare - Florida
These newly elected Board members will assume their new positions at the 2012 Annual Conference in Austin, Texas April 17-20.
Also, I would like to share my appreciation to Pam Segura and Kevin Kasnick as their term on the board ends this April. Current, Board member, Tammy Miller, has agreed at the board's request to serve an additional year (2012-2013) to fulfill Kevin Kasnick's term. And while my board term also ends, I look forward to celebrating SHCA’s 2012 Annual Conference and hope to see many of you there.
Best regards,
Carol Waldemayer
Immediate SHCA Past President and Nominating Committee Chair
