Statement From Our President

                         

​Dear NAHSE South Florida Members: 

​Thank you for giving me an opportunity to serve as your Chapter President. My goal is to align tightly with the national organization and bring to you the opportunity to grow your professional career in Healthcare. My plan is outlined in three key areas Local Advocacy, Sustainability of the Chapter, and Innovation in the delivery of care in our community. Our advocacy program is designed to increase and improve access to care, while promoting awareness of affordable programs in the tri-county districts of South Florida.  The Board of Directors and Committee Chairs will actively work with local cities, hospitals/clinics, and the Florida State Legislature to address diversity and inclusion initiatives for underrepresented minority healthcare leaders. I have outlined programs for 2018-2019 to double our chapter membership by increasing our outreach programs including social media, collaborations with local healthcare organizations, professional networking, career advancement and educational events.  My co-chairs will roll out  2018-2019 programs for corporate sponsorships, internships, scholarships, and mentoring opportunities specifically for our members. Lastly our innovation initiative will include C-Suite roundtables with local area Healthcare executives working to bring population health initiatives to distressed communities in a critical time of change. Our quarterly newsletter will feature articles addressing social determinants of health, career advancement, process and performance improvement and ideas to adapt to the changing landscape in value-based care.
​
I look forward to working with all of you on this grand journey.
Warmest Regards,
Grant McGaugh
