The AAMI Nominating Committee has selected new leaders to serve on the AAMI Board of Directors, representing a significant change in the membership of the Board. Pending confirmation from the AAMI membership, six new members will join the Board this summer, alongside current members receiving nominations for the positions of chair-elect, treasurer, vice chair positions. Two new members were also nominated to join the Nominating Committee.
“This year is special because we have six new members joining the AAMI Board of Directors, representing the biggest shift in the makeup of the Board in recent memory,” said Steve Yelton, Chair of the AAMI Board of Directors, HTM Senior Engineer, and a professor emeritus at Cincinnati State Technical & Community College. “From medical device companies to healthcare delivery organizations and now The Joint Commission, our Board of Directors and Committees come from diverse personal and professional backgrounds and, like AAMI, reach all corners of the health technology community.”
