-The editorial staff of DIRECTIONS

PHMC’s role as a pioneer in providing services for those with HIV/AIDS was established through the development of a uniform case management system.

DIRECTIONS editorial staff recently interviewed Michael K. Pearson, a board member of PHMC and of its newest affiliate Philadelphia Health Care Trust, to discuss the importance of effective board members and learn why he chose to sit on PHMC’s boards.

How connected are you to your social network? When was the last time you picked up the phone to talk with a friend? Joined a softball team? Chatted with your neighbor who lives across the street?

The people at PHMC talk frequently about our role as a trusted partner. I use the words “partnership” and “collaboration” quite a lot. But sometimes it can be hard to make the creative leap from the concept to what it means in practice. In this issue of DIRECTIONS, we take that leap with you.
