A streamlined committee structure should help make the time of our dedicated physician volunteers more effective - welcome news as our profession places increasing demands on our time. Trying to eliminate unnecessary demands where possible becomes essential. However, in many situations physician input is vital to various hospital and clinic administrative functions. Our medical staff is fortunate to have many talented and generous members ready and able to contribute significantly to the needs of our organization. Many already participate in activities within their own, state or local medical organizations, and professional societies.
Many faculty also contribute time to the vital functions of the medical school and the university.
The citizenship one demonstrates through such participation does not go unrecognized by the administration of the hospital or school. We welcome new recruits and the revitalized support of many of you who have helped us in past years. Anyone interested in participating in the various activities within SHS is welcome to make that known to the medical staff office.
