WELCOME TO THE OHIO STATE SOCIETY OF MEDICAL ASSISTANTS

A Message from the President...

Aimee-Quinn OSSMA_edited.jpg

It’s hard to believe January is already over, the days are going by so quick!  I hope everyone has a happy, healthy and productive 2023. 

 

Planning is ongoing for the 2023 OSSMA State Conference, hosted by the West Central Ohio Chapter.   The conference will be held at the Howard Johnson by Wyndham in Lima, Ohio.  You will find the registration in this edition of Helping Hands or on the OSSMA website.  The Chapter has been working hard and lined up some great speakers.  Thank you to the West Central Chapter for their hard work.  Conference is a great way to network with other CMA (AAMA)’s.  I look forward to seeing you at the conference. 

 

There are several open Board of Trustee positions available.  The nominating committee has extended the deadline for the consent to serve to February 28th.  If you are interested in holding a position at the state level, please fill out the consent or if you have questions about different positions please reach out. 

 

Have you checked out the new OSSMA website?  The website went live in December and the committee worked very hard to provide you with as much information as they could in an easy to find manor.  If you haven’t stopped by, take a minute to get a feel for the new site.  You can find it at www.ossma.org.  You will find all the important information on the site, like the new updated policy handbook. 

 

I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve as your State President.  The Ohio State Society is lucky to have so many great mentors in our organization.  Thanks to those that have helped guide me this past year, without you the organization would not be what it is today.

 

So, in closing, I again challenge those of you who are new graduates or new CMA(AAMA)’s to join the AAMA. I encourage our members to grab a new graduate, a fellow coworker, a friend, or someone just wanting to know more about the OSSMA organization and head to your local chapter or our state meetings. Again, we would love to see new faces getting involved, because one day you will be the future of our organization.  If you have any questions, please reach out to me, I am always willing to share my experiences, answer questions and be a voice for you.
