2013 Marks Retirement Year For Many PAs
Dear CAPA,
In 2013, Sue Gilroy was appointed to be a member of California’s Healthcare Associated Infections Advisory Committee (HAIAC). In addition, in the summer of 2013 she hiked to the top of Mt. Killamjanaro. Congratulations, Sue!
CAPA is very grateful for the support, dedication and time Bill Barcellona committed to us in our legislative efforts this year. CAPG co-sponsored both SB 352 and SB 494 and Bill spent many hours talking about and walking us through the exciting world of KnoxKeene regulations. His expertise in health care law and managed care was invaluable to us in achieving our success. He is a tremendous advocate and put a great deal of effort into promoting the merits of our bills and PAs.
Becoming a PA was the best thing to happen to me. I LOVED IT, I LIVED IT. I am retired now but use my skills as a volunteer with the Red Cross, especially with the deploying troops that take off from Camp Roberts. I support CAPA and give thanks daily to the Almighty that He steered me into the most worthwhile thing I ever did in my life. Best Regards, Lynne S. Newhouse, PA-C, RN
Published in August 2013, a note from long-time CAPA member, Lynne Newhouse, PA-C, one of many CAPA members who retired in 2013. Her love of the profession is evident as she enters this new phase of her life/career. We wish Lynne and the other PAs retiring in 2013 all the best. Thank you for the thousands of patients you cared for.
