It has been a pleasure and a privilege to serve as your MCDVS president this past year. What a learning and growing experience it was!
As I apprehensively accepted the reigns of presidency, I found out that I had a great supportive board assisting me every step of the way. I thank them for such great teamwork.
Now it is my turn to hand over the reigns to Cindi McPherson, who I have great confidence will do a wonderful job leading the way into the 2010-2011 year. I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to my dynamic board and to all of you for allowing me the honor of serving as your president. I look forward to assuming my advisor role alongside of our new president.

| Volunteer Management Resources
|
As our jobs get busier, and volunteer requirements are become more involved and demanding, we as managers need to streamline our resources as much as we can. MCDVS provides a wonderful opportunity to brainstorm, share programs and procedures, and identify areas of concern in volunteer management.
When you are looking for resources or references, please remember the tools available through the American Hospital Volunteer Resource Professional (AHVRP) web page. This site can provide basic tools for orientation, volunteer position descriptions, and ideas for recognition, Joint Commission information, and discussion opportunities. If you are not an AHVRP member, there are still many tools available for you to access. Through our national and state partnerships, we are able to enhance our programs and ability to grow a strong, impactful volunteer work force to complement our organization's mission, vision, and goals. |
