If you are not already a member of our professional society - the American Society for Healthcare Risk Management (ASHRM) - I would encourage you to join. The organization is a good resource for educational materials and provides news of current events that affect healthcare organizations. Your state will also have a chapter of the organization that should keep abreast of things a little closer to home. The state and national meetings are a great way to network with other Risk Managers.
The Annual Conference for 2007 is being held in Chicago on October 10-13. You can view information about the conference on the ASHRM website at http://www.ashrm.org
If it is too late to get that into your budget for this year, the annual conference for next year is in Boston on October 2-5.
