Hello to All Members:

We look forward to seeing you at the Fall Meeting in Dover, DE.  See “Upcoming Events” tab and by all means bring a guest or two! 

I would like to say “Thanks” to our current board members for all their hard work and support during a busy and productive year.  We look forward to serving you the rest of the year and next.

Should you be a new member to DC, DE & MD State Society, please come to our next meeting to meet us.  Our District Councilor will also be at the meeting, what a great time we will have.

The National Meeting was fantastic!  Our desire is for more of our members to become proactive and participate. 

Enjoy the rest of 2007, it’s going fast.

Eastern District Councillor’s Message

Fall 2007 

The 69th Educational Program and Annual Meeting of American Medical Technologists was held at the Dolphin Hotel in Orlando, FL, on July 9-14, 2007.  I hope that you were able to attend!  For those who couldn’t make it, it was a week of educational sessions, networking with colleagues, getting together with old friends, making new friends, and lots of fun!  The Eastern District meeting was held on July 13, with twenty attendees and all six Eastern District State Societies represented.  It was great to share news with each other and acknowledge that many of us share the same problems.  I would like to again congratulate the 2006 Honor Roll State Societies and the National Award winners – I hope that all of the Eastern District states can make the Honor Roll for 2007! 

Kathy Cilia is the new Marketing Director for AMT.  Kathy is a Medical Technologist with a Masters in Business.  She will be a great help to the organization and to the membership.    

AMT is moving forward with electronic publications in the state societies.  Two states have been approved to test electronic publications in addition to mailing their publications – North Carolina emailed their Spring publication, and New Mexico will post their Fall publication on their website.  Data will be gathered from these two states’ members to see how many of them actually received /viewed the electronic publications. There are a lot of questions and problems yet to be worked out, and I will keep you updated as decisions are made. 

National Medical Assistants Week is October 15-19, 2007.  The slogan this year is, “Medical Assistants - The Heartbeat of Healthcare”.  Congratulations to all the hard working MAs who administer healthcare to our patients.  

New National officers for 2008 are:

Charles Baker, President

Paul Brown, Vice President

Roxann Clifton, Secretary

Nancy Barrow, Treasurer

Clara Boykin was appointed as Central Lakes District Councillor to fill the vacancy left when Darlene Sangregario stepped down last year.  Edna Anderson, longtime Western District Councillor, will be stepping down this year and will be sorely missed by the Council.  A new Western District Councillor will be appointed to take Edna’s place at the Board Meeting in October.  

Upcoming meetings:

DC/Delaware/Maryland – October 13, 2007 – Dover, DE

Maine/New Hampshire – October 17-19, 2007 – Portland, ME

West Virginia – October 18, 19, 2007 – Flatwoods, WV

New Jersey – October 20, 2007 – Hackensack, NJ

New York – October 20, 2007 – Queens, NY

Pennsylvania – April/May, 2008 – Valley Forge, PA

Also, plan now to attend the 2008 AMT National Meeting July 7-12, 2008 in Providence, Rhode Island.  Travel costs should be minimal to the states here in the Eastern District, so mark your calendars! 

In closing, I would like to thank you for allowing me to serve as your District Councillor.  It is an honor and a privilege to work with your state leaders.  Please support them in their efforts to keep the state societies active and growing.  Feel free to contact me if I can be of service to you. 

Sincerely,

Janet Crigler

Eastern District Councillor
