Dr. David Price presents the Chair's Report for October 2007
As you may know, Lisa Dolovich, is our new research director, effective October 15, 2007. Please stay tuned for more information as to the future of research within the Department. Exciting times are ahead!
Please remember that email is not a confidential form of communication. For those in the units, please ensure to use OSCAR for any discussions concerning patients etc. Please also remember that confidentiality, especially in a clinical environment, is essential. OSCAR programmers are currently working on guidelines for those who have access to clinical charts, with staff having tiered levels of access according to their needs.
Dr. Dave McCann will start with the Department as of December 1, 2007. Dr. McCann is originally from Canada but has been residing in Georgia for the last few years. He has an interest in disaster medicine and will bring an interesting new dimension to the Department.
Alternate Funding Plan
Phase 3 of the AFP will soon be rolled out. These funds will help to free up the Clinical Practice Plan and will allow the Department to increase capacity and hire more staff or allied health professionals as needed.
Many thanks to Dr. John Kelton for providing a very stimulating and thought-
ful presentation. We look forward to having him back at some point in the
future.
