National Medical Staff Services Awareness Week is our opportunity to be recognized nationally, just as so many other healthcare professionals are. It is confirmation that ours is truly a healthcare profession that is important to the overall wellbeing of the patients we serve.
Terry Wilson, BS, CPMSM, CPCS, director of medical staff services at Flagler Hospital in St. Augustine, FL.
The celebration and recognition of Medical Staff Services Professionals Week allows us to not only receive deserved recognition for what we contribute each day, but it also gives us an opportunity to reflect on how we can give the same deserved recognition back to the profession.
Bonnie Conley, CPCS, director of medical staff services at Trinity Medical Center in Carrollton, TX.
Unfortunately, our hospital does not recognize this week. With as much work that I do and the hours of dedication, it would be nice and welcomed to have some type of recognition. I am curious to all the other answers.
Bonnie Edlebeck, medical staff coordinator at Dickinson County Healthcare System in Iron Mountain, MI
