Serving
with a smile
In the current
healthcare climate, where the day to day demands of work are intensified by
budget cuts, AASCIN volunteers may find it difficult to participate in
AASCIN activities that take time from an already packed work week. If your
employer has concerns about your participation in AASCIN, perhaps we can
give them a reason (or two) to consider the benefits of volunteerism in a
national association:
-
Serving
AASCIN gives you exposure to SCI healthcare personnel and related
healthcare professionals in a variety of settings which establishes a
broader vision on the trends and changes in the healthcare industry.
This can help lead your company to better meet future healthcare
challenges.
-
Serving
AASCIN gives your employer nationwide visibility and increased
credibility within your community.
-
Serving
AASCIN advances the national development of SCI nursing care.
