Doctor’s Note: July Newsletter Introduction from Dr. Claire Boogaard

Dear PHN colleagues,

Happy July!  I know you’re all having a “hot” summer at this point, but hoping you’re also finding time to relax and cool down before we head into the busy back-to-school season.  As we move through the summer, I wanted to take a moment to update you on some exciting upcoming events.

Thank you to those of you who were able to join us at last month’s Inventa Day events. On June 25, we hosted our practice managers and administrators for a day of learning and collaboration at our offices at Inventa. Speakers covered topics relevant to our practices, including handling critical incidents in the workplace, social media, and AI software, as well as a feature from eCW. It was a great chance to connect and learn together, and we look forward to more chances to collaborate in the future.

Looking ahead, we have several other important events scheduled:

• August 22, 2024 @ noon: PHN Grand Rounds on STIs and PrEP and PEP
• September 11, 2024 @ noon: Behavioral Health Initiative: Anxiety 2.0
• Continuing eCW and Practice Administrator Meetings: These ongoing meetings are essential for keeping us updated on electronic health record systems and administrative practices. Your involvement ensures that we stay current with best practices and technological advancements. Read further in our newsletter for upcoming dates.

Thank you for your dedication to the health and well-being of our patients. Your commitment to continuous learning and improvement is what makes our pediatric community so strong.

Wishing you all a wonderful summer.
