Summer Boot
Camps Wow ‘Em in Vegas
Summer of
2011 saw the launch of the second in our Boot Camp series, this
one geared to health services administrators. Held
simultaneously with the Medical Director Boot Camp, now in its
third year, the events were wildly successful, producing heaps
of unsolicited praise. Here’s a sampling:
Health
Administrator Boot Camp
It was a
no-brainer to send our HSAs, and we also brought our medical
director, purchasing manager and chief of operations from
security. There was no question the program would be of high
value—the breadth and depth of topics, the caliber and
reputation of the presenters, and the reasonable cost made it a
value beyond compare. There were years of learning and
experience concentrated in two days! Invaluable, particularly
since most of our HSAs have been in their positions for two
years or less, and one for only two weeks. It turned out to be
one of the best training programs I’ve ever attended. Not only
did I learn new things, but the HSAs realized they were part of
a larger whole, that there is a rationale behind everything we
do and that the people establishing the standards are
knowledgeable, compassionate and understanding of our
responsibilities. I wish there had been a Boot Camp when I
started in 1993!

Director Boot Camp
Thank you
for a fantastic conference in Las Vegas. I learned a lot and
made some great contacts.... I am looking forward to continued
professional development in corrections and will certainly look
to NCCHC for guidance.

I sent an
email to my assistant director before noon the first day
informing her that the Boot Camp had already been worth the
trip.
