Maurer, M.D., in the hospital’s new rehabilitation center as College of Medicine Dean John Gollan, M.D., Ph.D., looks on. Drs. Maurer and Gollan and other senior medical center leaders are in the midst of a two-day trip to northeast Nebraska as part of the fourth-annual UNMC leadership visit. |
The group visited West Point and Norfolk on Monday and will stop in Wayne, South Sioux City, Macy and Winnebago today.
The UNMC group is meeting with members of the respective communities at receptions and service club meetings. Tours of health care facilities and visits with facility administrators, health professionals and staff are on the agenda.
The purpose of the trip is to thank communities for their support, listen to the health care needs of the community, introduce members of the UNMC leadership team, and let people know UNMC leaders are accessible.
Dr. Maurer and others are blogging from the road about their experiences in the various communities. Click here to read their blog entries.
