2022 NEHES President
HAPPY NEW YEAR
As the calendar turns to 2022, I am filled with optimism for the year ahead, in addition to a wealth of emotions. Among these emotions I am feeling a sense of happiness, hopefulness, a cautious confidence, and a sense of pride. Pride in carrying on not only the NEHES tradition, but also thinking about the long family history that I have in NEHES. Though in considering the NEHES organization, I can truly say you are all a part of my family. I thank all of you for that.
I am humbled to have been elected President of NEHES, and hope to build upon the foundation that has been placed before me. This foundation has been well crafted by leaders in the healthcare engineering industry over now sixty-four years.
The year 2022 represents significant challenges for the healthcare industry. The continuing pandemic is ever changing with new variants coming at us every few months. We are the innovators that keep our patients, visitors, and staff safe within our facilities, and innovation has been the norm in dealing with the pandemic. Hopefully, 2022 sees the end of the pandemic and a return to, somewhat, normalcy.
Let’s get to work!
