Last year during Ultrasound Awareness Month we announced the Inspiring Excellence Mentor Award. We asked all of you to nominate someone who has made an outstanding commitment to mentoring within the field of ultrasound. We asked and you answered!! Dozens of applications came in from around the globe!
CardioServ’s next stop on the World Tour was Cleveland, Ohio! We had the honor of speaking at the Spring Echo Conference “Back to Basics” for the NOCIA. The Society conference was held on the campus of a local college (Cuyahoga Community College). Attendees from the Cleveland and Akron area attended, which included sonographers, students and physicians.
This year for Ultrasound Awareness Month, we asked you all to recognize yourself or a fellow sonographer or physician by submitting a story about a time you saved a day or made a difference. Here at CardioServ, we believe that each and every sonographer is a hero in their own way and we want to share your stories!
Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month (MUAM) is held annually in October to create awareness of the role diagnostic medical sonographers play in the medical community and to educate the public about medical ultrasound and its many uses in healthcare. We would like to recognize and thank the many individuals that work tirelessly, day-in and day-out, to provide the highest level of care to their patients. We have found that many healthcare providers are unaware of the skill and dedication required to excel in ultrasound. Ultrasound remains one of the few diagnostic imaging modalities that relies so heavily on the skill of the operator!
