The Spartanburg Chapter continues to provide interesting education for our members, and support for our students.

Our education has included; “Managing Issues In Men’s Health after Diagnosis and Treatment for Prostate Cancer”, by Urologist Dr. Michael Pryor, and “The Physician Practice Environment”, lecture by Todd Tamalunas, CEO, Urology Center of Spartanburg. Todd’s focus was improving communication skills, understanding the importance of continued education and promoting teamwork within the practice.

 In August, Todd Tamalunas and David Cope, COO Mary Black Hospital System presented mock interviews to help our students has they interview for potential jobs and managers as they prepare to interview applicants.

In September and December our educational session will be presented by our own chapter members: Twana Triplett, CMA (AAMA) will speak on “Professionalism”. “The ABC’s of Parliamentary Procedures” taught by Peggy Edwards, CMA (AAMA) will be the session for our December meeting. Thank you ladies for being willing to use your talents for the chapter!

 In October the chapter will celebrate Medical Assistants Week with the mini Bowl of Knowledge and special refreshments, and in November our topic will be pharmacology.

The chapter voted to attend the pinning ceremony for our newly graduated students for the month of July. Congratulations to all the new graduates and new CMA’s who have passed their exams!
