Mahalo, Suzanne Asaro President-Elect – Hawaii-Pacific Chapter of ACHE Welcome Posted on May 13, 2020 February 14, 2022 by editorhawaii Message from the New President Aloha Chapter Members! The new year is in full swing and like many of you I am looking forward to 2022 with cautious optimism. Our healthcare community has endured much over the last two years. We have been heralded as heroes of the frontlines for weeks, months, and moving now into years. Many of our own are tired, having valiantly risen to meet the challenges of the pandemic day after day, both at work and at home. As leaders in our facilities, practices, and communities, I know that you experience the dual challenge of maintaining your own personal poise and resiliency while also rallying your teams, keeping them inspired to meet the needs of the day and to keep moving forward. I commend these efforts, because together, as a healthcare community, we have made an incredible impact and saved thousands of lives. While not easy, the work we do and leadership we provide is meaningful and worthwhile. Thank you for making such a positive difference for your patients, your staff, and your communities. I know many of us miss meeting in person where we were able to network and learn from each other, share experiences, and forge new relationships. Our local chapter of the American College of Healthcare Executives will be looking for opportunities to safely re-introduce in person membership events and will be communicating with you regarding these over the coming weeks. Our national event, the 2022 Congress on Healthcare Leadership, will take place in person in Chicago March 28-31. We will also be bringing more educational opportunities both in person and virtually throughout the year. I look forward to re-connecting. Mahalo, Travis Clegg, MBA, FACHE President – Hawaii-Pacific Chapter of ACHE Chief Operating Officer – Straub Medical Center Email: Travis.Clegg@straub.net Welcome Posted on March 13, 2019 February 9, 2022 by editorhawaii Message from the New President Aloha Chapter Members! I hope your 2020 is off to a great start. It’s an honor to represent the Hawaii-Pacific Chapter of ACHE as President this year. I’m most looking forward to networking with our members, sharing best practices, and coordinating educational opportunities so we can continue to advance the quality of healthcare being provided here in the islands. In January, we held our first board meeting of the year, as well as our annual strategy session to ensure we are aligned with the needs of our community and our membership. Our focus this year will be in three key areas: Networking, Education, and Philanthropy. This year’s activities kick off with the Annual ACHE congress, held this year from March 23rd – 26th at the Hyatt Regency in Chicago. ACHE’s Congress on Healthcare Leadership gathers more than 4,200 leaders from the healthcare leadership community for this annual premier education and networking event, we hope to see you there. We also have several great social and educational events scheduled locally in the coming months, calendars will be distributed shortly. Lastly, I wanted to touch on our philanthropic efforts this year. We will be partnering with H4, a comprehensive service facility serving Oahu’s chronically homeless population. In the coming months, you’ll see additional information released about how you and your organization are able to help with supplies and other toiletries for H4. Social determinants of health have real impacts on the outcomes of Hawaii’s homeless, and what better way to show solidarity, partnering as a chapter to help this cause. Thank you for being a member of this great organization, and I hope to connect with you all at one of our upcoming events! Mahalo, Andrew T.
