Dear NH-AFP Board:
I have just returned from the first half of the AAFP Chief Resident Leadership Conference which you have generously offered to provide funding so that both chief residents could attend.
Allowing both chiefs to attend this conference not only gave us each the opportunities to individually learn skills around conflict negotiation and leadership but also to work together to start planning our goals for the upcoming year.
In our upcoming year we hope to work on issues such as resident morale, recruiting, and we also hope to lobby for administrative time for ourselves so we can better serve our fellow residents.
The second half of the conference is in September in Orlando, FL at the scientific assembly and will provide an opportunity for us to meet again with fellow family medicine chiefs from across the country to brainstorm other ways improve our residency program, and thus the future of family doctors in NH.
Again, thank you for your ongoing support of the NH-Dartmouth Family Medicine residents.
Sincerely,
Shauna L. Guthrie, MD
PGY-2 NH-DFMR, Chief Elect
