SCMS Community Service Award
October 27, 2009
Thank you to Dr. Debasish Mridha for establishing a new award to be given by the Saginaw County Medical Society. The yet-to-be-named community service award will be awarded annually to a non-physician who lives and/or works in Saginaw County and has added to the improvement of the health care field in Saginaw County. Nominations will be accepted from Saginaw County Medical Society members.
This award is presented annually to an individual in Saginaw County to acknowledge their outstanding involvement and diligence in improving the health care of the Saginaw community. Consideration will be given to all listed below:
· A member (or group of members) from a company, institution, organization or agency that has reached beyond its normal sphere of business to implement a response to a community health problem.
· A volunteer who devotes time, skills, and/or resources to assisting others and/or contributing to the betterment of healthcare.
· An individual that is not a direct provider of patient care that has demonstrated the desire and willingness to use his or her knowledge and abilities to improve the health of the local community.
· A non-physician who may be a direct provider of healthcare (nurse, physician assistant, dentist, pharmacist, midwife, social worker, paramedic, physical therapist, etc.) who personifies the ideals of their profession and has repeatedly demonstrated activities that have gone “above and beyond,” contributing in significant ways to the betterment of healthcare locally.
The deadline for nominations is March 31, 2010. The Community Service Committee will select the award recipient. The first award recipient will be presented a trophy at the May 18, 2010, SCMS membership meeting.
Selection guidelines state that consideration will be given based on the nominee’s involvement, initiative and the need for their service. In addition, consideration will be given to the nominee’s affiliations, accomplishments, leadership, effectiveness and generosity of time and spirit.
Please nominate a deserving individual by completing and returning the nomination form.
