Personal Membership Groups of the SCHA PDF Print E-mail

The health care environment is changing every day. To survive, you have to keep abreast of the latest developments, learn more about your job and the best way to do it. By joining one of our personal membership groups, you can achieve all these things and more.

The personal membership groups (PMG) are vital components of the South Carolina Hospital Association. PMG membership offers concerned professionals a way to achieve common goals, develop management skills and expertise, and the opportunity for affiliation in organizations that represent their chosen professions.

PMGs also benefits a member’s health care facility by helping to increase efficiency, productivity, and the quality of patient care.

SCHA’s personal membership groups meet periodically to provide a medium for the exchange of ideas and information. These meetings also allow professionals involved in the health care field to address issues of concern on behalf of their hospitals, health systems and other health care related facilities.

To strengthen their professions, members attend quality education programs and other activities planned by a committee elected annually by the membership.

Members of personal membership groups also receive important information, such as announcements of educational programs and society newsletters.

The membership fee for all SCHA personal membership groups is a reasonable $80 per year, except for SCONL, which is $85 per year that includes chapter dues for AONE. Anyone affiliated with an institutional member of the association is eligible to join one of these exciting PMGs. Membership fee will be $40 ($45 for SCONL) for applications received after June 30.
