"We promote the Annual Meeting at
each of our monthly meetings and
regional meetings. [After the event,]
having presentations available for
access is nice so that individuals can
view the information if they aren't able
to attend in person."

Susan Casso, BSN, RN
Connecticut Society for Cardiac
Rehabilitation (CSCR)
"We encourage our affiliate members
to attend the Annual Meeting by raffling
one or two registration fees to help
members attend, especially since
education funds are slim."

"This year I will post
a 'letter from the president' report on
the affiliate website after the Annual
Meeting, which will highlight main
topics and themes."

"We relay time-sensitive information
via email and we include general
information and updates at our state
conference. If there are really great
speakers, we consider having them
at a future MNACVPR Conference so
more of our members can benefit."

Heidi Graft, BS,
RCEP
Wisconsin Society for
Cardiovascular and
Pulmonary Health
& Rehabilitation
(WISCPHR)

"Our hospital tries to send one or two
staff members when the budget allows.
Those staff are expected to provide the
group with a PowerPoint presentation
of the information that they were able
to attain in order to update the group."

Karen Drader, RN, BSN
Upper Plains Cardiopulmonary
Rehabilitation Association (ND, SD)
(UPCRA)

"We hold our fall teleconference after
the AACVPR Annual Meeting and
three or four people share a topic of
their choice from the conference. The
president provides reimbursement and
other information."

Barbara Masters,
MSN, RN-BC,
CCRP, FAACVPR
Illinois Society for
Cardiopulmonary
Health & Rehabilitation
(ISCHR)

John Scherry, PT, CSCS

Association (HCRA)

"Those who attend [the Annual
Meeting] are required to present an
in-service of their continuing education
experience."

Levi Tucker, RN, BSN, CNL,
EP-C
Arkansas Cardiovascular & Pulmonary
Rehabilitation Association (ACVPRA)

"We have members share their
experience, and the benefits they
received, at our meeting."

"At the end of our state annual
conference, we always talk about
the AACVPR Annual Meeting. We
encourage attendance by offering a
state get-together (food and drink) at
the conference."
