 Greetings!  

 

      Did summer ever really happen?  My friend sent me a picture of Christmas decorations at Target the other day!  Before you know it  October will be here and Breast Cancer Awareness Month begins!   Call now for your appointments - we are always busy at the end of the year!           

     Take a moment to go through the newsletter and read our news about Felicia, our Breast Imaging Coordinator, who has become a Breast Patient Navigator and find out about The Waterbury Chamber's Health Care Council's seminars coming up that are not just for health care providers, all are welcome to attend and learn about the options that will be offered in the very near future.  This is information everyone needs to know!

DRA's Felicia Ferry  RT(R)(M) Becomes Certified Breast Patient Navigator
     Diagnostic Radiology Associates is proud to announce that Felicia Ferry, RT(R)(M) has now added the certification of CBPN-I, Certified Breast Patient Navigator to her credentials. Felicia joined DRA in 2001 serving as the Breast Imaging Coordinator. She has 21 years of experience as a Radiologic Technologist having received her first RT certification at New Britain General Hospital School of Radiologic Technology.
    The Breast Patient Navigator Certification Program is a certification that has been developed by a peer review team of the National Consortium of Breast Centers( NCBC). The purpose of this certification is to set standards of achievement and the professional's role; enhance patient safety, quality of care and delivery of services; and recognize professionals who advance beyond basic knowledge in a field of specialty.  Felicia will serve as a resource and advocate for breast health for DRA and will answer questions concerning breast health, provide education and support, coordinate care as needed and prepare women for possible treatments and outcomes. DRA is extremely proud to have Felicia on its staff and hopes that this is just one more step in coordinated breast health care for Waterbury.   "In passing this advanced certification I feel that I am better qualified to navigate our patients through the sometimes complicated path of breast imaging.  In doing so I hope to make their experience a positive one that is less stressful."
