APTA Acute Care Nominating Committee Members

Guest Quotes:

15:46 Leslie “ I would say I’ve really enjoyed the nominating committee so far… And it wasn’t necessarily even something that I was thinking about, but I’m so happy that I said yes and took that leap. You get to see the inner workings of the academy without kind of from the outside, looking in and get an idea of what everybody’s doing. Without necessarily having to Jump in full fledged.”

17:30 Brigid “That was actually definitely my motivation for running for the position. So Leo pinged me for it. And the first time I was like, no, I don’t really know a lot of people in the Academy. Like most of my like networking and like colleagues and stuff has been in the pediatrics Academy because I’m pediatric acute care. But I really wanted to get involved in the acute care Academy. So after the second email, I was like, you know, you’re right,this is my end to like network with people and meet people and start volunteering in a role.”
