President's Message
 

Dear ASSAMT Members,

The fall state society meeting was held in Huntsville. Wow! So much informative information was shared. We found out how each patient was selected for transplants. The speaker shared that the correct blood type is the number one criteria in search for the right donor. It is indeed fascinating to see the joy on a transplant recipient’s face. Special thanks to Michele Gillies for organizing our fall meeting.

The election of officers was held during the business meeting. The following are the results: Debra C. Jackson, RMA, President; Rikki R. Packer, RMA, Vice-President; Nikki Parsons, RPT, Secretary; and Frances Simpson, MT, Treasurer. David Betts, MT was re-elected to Editor of the Alatech. Salimata Kone-Coulibaly, MT, Michelle Gillies, MT, Ann Brocato, MT, Irene Taylor, MT and Paul C. Brown, MT are current members of the board.

AMT’s 71st Educational Program and National Meeting will be held at the Minneapolis Hilton, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota, June 22-27, 2009. Do make plans to attend this convention as it’s promised to be another great event. You will have an opportunity to meet new friends, learn through the great educational sessions and have lots of fun. There is a lot to see and do in the Minneapolis area.

The spring board meeting will take place 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM Saturday, April 18, 2009 at the Hilton Garden Inn, Montgomery. All board members are encouraged to attend. Delegate confirmation will be done at this meeting. The next educational forum will take place in Mobile on Friday, September 25, 2009. Members in the Mobile area are planning this meeting. I want to say to each of you to try and give your state society two weekends out of the year. You will never go home empty.

Remember our motto: “We motivate each other to stay active.” Humor for today: “Ya’ll know that the economy is real bad right now, but the best way to hear money jingle in your pocket is to shake a leg.” I want to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday.

Sincerely,

Debra C. Jackson, MBA, RMA

President
