​A Note from your
​CMSA President

REMINDER:
NO MEETING
IN ​JUNE

Hello folks. We had a wonderful turnout last month for our first in person meeting in such a long time. Thank you all for coming out to support our local chapter. As in the past we do not have meetings in June due to National CMSA. We plan to be back in the swing next month and going forward.  

If you are  or know of any speakers and companies that are interested in providing education and lunch  to our folks; please contact Elizabeth McAllister,egraves@comcast.net. MAKE SURE to put in the subject line CMSA Education. Because this is something that is to educate we also ask for CEUs that can be applied for through PACE@ccmcertification.org or call 856 380-6836, it can take up to 30 days for the course to be approved, so starting early is beneficial . Case Managers/Social Workers can use and needs the CEUs for our certifications.  

Companies please take a moment to look on our web site to see how to become a sponsor and we thank you in advance for your support. Individuals please go to CMSA.org to apply or update a membership.

Thank you all again for coming in May and we look forward to seeing you soon.

Well, April is almost over and it is good to feel warm temperatures again. Since our last note we have celebrated Social Workers month in March and Easter in April. I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter and were very good to your Social Workers.

​I have some exciting news! It looks like we will be able to meet in person May 18, 2022 @ 12:00 in the 3rd floor classroom at Centennial Medical, 2300 Patterson St, Nashville Tn 37203. Please park in B garage on 23rd ave.

We ARE STILL practicing safe distancing and face masks.

The CMSA board will provide lunch as it is just going to be a meet and greet this time. For all of those that had paid up sponsor memberships prior to covid; we are honoring that. We will be asking for new sponsors to participate as well. The first meeting we will not request pay but for meeting thereafter if not a sponsor member or individual member we will be asking for you to pay. We will let you know in the future the cost.

Thank you all so, so much for your continued support of CMSA and patience. It will be so good to see folks again.
               
I would also like to let you know about the vendor visit policy for Centennial Case Managers and Social Workers. The hospital is still practicing no vendor marketing unless seeing a patient to provide a service.
               
Don’t forget that the National CMSA conference is live June 1-4/2022 in Orlando, Fla. You can register at CMSA.org. Also, please use the same web site to sign up as an individual member or renew your membership. Companies interested in sponsor memberships can go to www.cmsa-tn.org.

A Note from your CMSA President

Good afternoon.

I am glad to let you know that we will be able to resume lunch and learns the 3rd Wednesday of every other month starting August. For August we will plan just a greet and meet with lunch. Below is the criteria that Tristar Centennial is adhering to so please follow these instructions for us to continue to provide education and networking with all of you. Please respond with RSVP of attendance since we have to space folks out to accommodate the social distancing. I am so excited to see you all again

This is the information about vendor visits/ gatherings:
  • As visitors enter, the Screener will ensure visitors are masked appropriately.
  • For large meetings, everyone should wear a mask since it is not possible to poll everyone for vaccination status.
  • If eating a meal during the meeting, masks should be worn before eating and immediately again after eating and tables/chairs should be positioned to provide for
  • 6 ft distancing apart. 
 
We also want to emphasize to the guests that they should come directly to 3T for the meeting and leave immediately after.
 
It is only appropriate for vendors to visit a patient or CM/SW  if they are registered with the Verified Professionals system.  They should wear their company’s badge as well as the VPro badge/sticker from the Kiosk at the Information Desk and then proceed to their appt with the CM, per the vendor policy.  Below is the site in case anyone needs information to register:
 
www.hwsverified.com
HealthTrust Service Desk and Customer Service
Service Desk: 855-727-2967
Customer Service: 954-514-1440
         
I also want to remind you that you can join CMSA as individual memberships by going online at CMSA.org and if joining as a corporate account can go to our website and join via pay pal or follow the instructions.
               
Thank you all for being so loyal to us during these difficult times. See you soon

A Note from your CMSA President 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. This year has been a very different year for all. CMSA is still here for you as support and resources even though we cannot meet at this time. I hope everyone is thoughtful about getting the new vaccine when you are able and still practicing social distance with mask.

The only new thing to tell you is the CMSA Middle TN board met and we are working on virtual presentations, so if you are interested in doing a presentation please contact Elizabeth McAllister @ egravesmca@icloud.com. This is new to all of us so stay tuned.

Until we are able to meet again. Be safe have a blessed Christmas and New Years.

A Note from your
CMSA President

​I want to thank all of the Case Managers that work in many different capacities for all of the hard work, patient/family support you give to your clients and patients. You work hard to assist with high quality of care and expertise. Through the years we have grown to be a highly sought after discipline. I personally have seen the growth, recognition and respect that we have now as compared to when I first started in Case Management. I hope you are all enjoying the recognition that National Case Management week is bringing you. For all of our sponsors that promote out chapter and our members; I want to thank you too. Please do not forget to appreciate your Case Managers that you work with.


I am looking forward to the day we can meet person to person again. I miss you all.


Have a wonderful Case Management Week.

President of CMSA Middle Tennessee Chapter
