2) In this segment of the meeting we will be discussing the Future Directions for OCEA Ohio Clinical Engineering Association. Your association has had it’s ups and downs over the last few years and it is time to determine where you want it to go and what you want it to be doing. Several of the Operations Committee Members are planning their retirement in 2012 and new thinkers and participants are needed to continue making OCEA a happening organization. We will be conducting some serious planning and talking about where this organization should be headed. A part of this process includes reviewing the answers to the 2012 Survey that is now being conducted. Your participation in this important survey is requested.
The 2012 OCEA Survey:
“Questions To Help OCEA Move Forward”
The QUESTIONS have been presented. We are waiting for your ANSWERS.
