*ASATT continues to monitor each of its regions based on the population representation disparity, trauma centers, etc. To maintain similar representation for all of its regions, Michigan is now included in Region 4.

Hey Region 4,

Hopefully things are starting to get back to normal for everyone minus the supply issues everyone seems to be having on a daily basis. Spring should be right around the corner but sometimes it seems like Mother Nature doesn’t want to let go of winter just yet.

We have a regional education seminar set up for April 23rd so you should see that on the web site soon if not already. 4 CEU’s and some good topics. After this one let me know if there are any other topics or areas of interest you want to see and I can work on those for the future.

The Annual Meeting for this year will be in Fort Worth, start planning now. We are going to have a little bit of a different format than in the past so let us know what you think. The dates are August 10th- August 12th. I’m really into grilling and smoking meat so I’m looking forward to some good Texas BBQ! We will also be having a national online education conference at the end of September so more opportunities for CEU’s. More info on that to come.

I know there has always been a lot of discussion about the differences in how we practice for state to state and hospital to hospital and I was wondering if you guys would be interested in me setting up a virtual meeting at some point just to have that type of discussion and to see what I can do to help us grow in our region. Please reach out to me and let me know what you think.

Respectfully yours 

Mike Kosanke 

Region 4 Director
