It has been a valuable experience, both personally and professionally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CHIMA is a well-respected and highly regarded association, and it has been such an honor just to be a part of a leadership team that continues to strive to be on the cutting edge of the profession. CHIMA\u2019s reputation is enhanced by the many health information management professionals who contribute their time and expertise to advancing the association and the industry. I have been fortunate to have worked closely with such quality committee members and appreciate all they\u2019ve done during my term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The BCYT chapter committee accomplishments over the past few years have been impressive, and it was truly a team effort. There have been so many noteworthy moments. We look forward to some first-time new accomplishments\u2014sold out events, CPE activities, and much more. I truly believe this is the result of listening to the members input, focusing on their needs first, and providing quality education sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is so much more outstanding work planned for 2020 and beyond. I look forward to continuing to support the BCYT chapter&#8217;s leadership and, in particular, our incoming chapter chair Kait Greer. Kait will continue to chart the future path of the chapter. Kait has served on the BCYT chapter since 2019 and her background and expertise in health information management have made her the outstanding leader she is today. The chapter could not be in more capable hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Again, thank you to the BCYT chapter members for allowing me the opportunity to serve; I walk away with memories and friendships that I will forever cherish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lindsey Page<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cgb-excerpt card has-theme-primary-background-color has-theme-white-color card-footer-hide card-body-show card-image-hide card-button-show\">\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cgb-card-body card-body card-body-default-padding\">\n<h3 class=\"card-title wp-block-heading\">CHIMA member Heather Nelson shares her perspective on clinical documentation improvement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cgb-card-inner-body card-inner-body\">\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-theme-white-color card-text wp-block-paragraph\">BCYT member Heather Nelson lives in Prince George, BC with her husband and two dogs.

With the coordinating and help of all faculty staff, students in the HIM program finished all courses successfully. Looking back to the past year, along with study of regular courses, there were some learning activities that helped enhance the understanding of the health information management industry.<br><br>Some students joined the internship at BC Women\u2019s and Children\u2019s Hospital and enjoyed the guest speakers\u2019 presentations from various departments. Some students gained related knowledge and hands-on experience through working on the UTI project in different facilities. In addition, some professionals were invited to present health care information knowledge and development directions. They also shared valuable career experience with us. Some of the presentations were open to both year one and year two students, which were good opportunities to communicate together.<br><br>There were two practicums in the second year. During <a href=\"https:\/\/douglascollege.blackboard.com\/webapps\/blackboard\/execute\/launcher?type=Course&amp;id=_81854_1&amp;url=\">coding practicum II<\/a>, we were able to review and practice CIHI coding standards through coding real patients\u2019 charts and learning from instructors.
