It joins the ranks of an exclusive organization within APA: the 100% Club.
This club was established to encourage residents throughout the United States
and Canada to join APA and to do so with other trainees in their programs,
according to Deborah Hales, M.D., director of APA's Division of Education and
Career Development.
A photo of each program that joins the 100% Club will be turned into a
poster and mailed to every medical school in the United States and Canada to
encourage medical students to join APA. In addition, programs in the 100% Club
receive a major textbook from American Psychiatric Publishing Inc. for each
year that all of their residents are APA members and a free online
subscription to Focus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning.
The director of the psychiatry residency training program at Arkansas is
Ben Guise, M.D. "We are delighted to join the APA 100% Club," said
Guise. "We are fortunate to have an excellent faculty who model
professionalism and leadership. Our committed faculty members are essential to
maintaining the high morale of our program. Our residents also deserve
commendation for demonstrating the initiative and dedication to become
actively involved in their professional organization. Please visit our Web
site at
<www.uams.edu/psych/academic/residency.asp>."
Guise is an apt role model for his students when it comes to APA
involvement—he is active in the Arkansas Psychiatric Society and served
as its president for the 2003-04 term.
More information about the 100% Club is available from Nancy
Delanoche at (703) 907-8635. Programs that are interested in signing up all
their residents should also contact Delanoche.
