Greetings Everyone,

So I just wanted to let everyone know that we are near the end of this years annual credentialing. Many of you have still yet to submit your reports to UBMD through the portal. Please get that done before Friday.

I have been contacted by several agencies in the Big Lakes region regarding this matter. All the Big Lakes agencies have yet to be added to the Portal and will not occur until at least next years credentialing. For those of you in the Big Lakes region, please submit your credentialing to Lakeplains in the same manner as years past.

Thanks

Greetings Everyone,

I was asked to pass along this request to participate in a valuable survey for research. Please share with your fellow providers:

Please see the below survey participation request and please consider sharing with your respective groups/providers. Dr McCann-Pineo is a longtime colleague with active research in a number of areas affecting our practice. The survey is completely anonymous, and there is no way to link any provider to their survey or raffle entry.

Dear EMS providers,

We are looking for individuals to participate in a research survey to understand the role of empathy on EMS provider occupational and personal wellbeing.

Participation in this research study is voluntary, and your decision on whether or not to participate in this study will not affect your employment at your respective EMS agency.

If you decide to participate, the one-time, anonymous survey is anticipated to take 15 minutes to complete. You may also enter a raffle to be awarded one of three, $100 electronic gift cards as compensation for your participation.

If you are interested, please use the link below to see if you are eligible to participate.

If you have any questions, please contact CTSRRresearch@northwell.edu or Molly McCann-Pineo (mmccann1@northwell.edu).

This research has been reviewed by the Northwell Health Institutional Review Board (IRB). If you have any questions about your rights as a participant, or if you feel that your rights have been violated, please contact the IRB at 516-465-1910.​

Greetings Everyone,
