Hello Region 7 Members,

As summer finally arrives in the Pacific Northwest, I am energized for a season of growth and professional excellence. Our long, beautiful Northwest days are the perfect backdrop to refresh our goals and recommit to strengthening our community.

I am incredibly eager to connect with our region and hear your ideas for future webinar topics and regional meetings. While digital communication has its place, nothing beats the power of meeting face-to-face. In-person gatherings allow us to share clinical workflows, build relational trust, and learn from each other's successes to improve patient care.

Please mark your calendars now to join us in person on November 7, 2026, at Overlake Hospital in Bellevue, Washington!

Finally, please use this beautiful Summer season to recharge and take care of yourself. Our work is demanding, and we can only provide the best care for our patients when we prioritize our own well-being. Thank you for your dedication to our profession, and I look forward to seeing you this November.

Warm regards,

John Gonzalez, Cer.A.T.T.
