Conference 2011

It is already 2011 and our Conference is fast-approaching. This year, to find our conference title, “CASE MANAGEMENT...To Infinity and Beyond!” we held a contest, and the person who submitted the winning title won a free pass to this conference. We received so many good suggestions, that we think we will continue this tradition!

We hope to have an even bigger and better event this year. We are very excited about our keynote speaker, Catherine Mullahy, RN, BS, CRRN, CCM, President of Mullahy & Associates, LLC. She recently earned the 2010 Lifetime Achievement Award from The Case Management Society of America. She is the author of The Case Manager’s Handbook, which was named American Journal of Nursing’s Book of the Year in 1998. Catherine recently completed the fourth edition of this handbook. In addition to Catherine, we are planning some great topics with local speakers to round out this event.

For our sponsors, we have introduced some new sponsorships this year, and have attempted to make all of our sponsorships more affordable. Many of you have been part of our event for many years as exhibitors or sponsors and for some of you, it was your first time last year. Without the generous contribution and participation of our friends and supporters, we cannot have a successful conference, as registration fees cannot cover all of the expenses. So please consider one of the many ways in which you can support our upcoming event.

We look forward to working with you this year!!!
