My First Experience at the ACEP Council: A Journey of Learning and Engagement
Cpt Michael Ramirez, MD
As a 2nd year emergency medicine resident, attending the ACEP Council for the first time was both a privilege and a transformative experience. As one of the councilors representing the Government Services Chapter, I was introduced to the world of professional advocacy and leadership, shaping the future of emergency medicine. As I return to my residency program, I have a renewed sense of purpose and commitment to the field of emergency medicine. I am motivated to share what I learned with my colleagues and to encourage fellow residents to engage in advocacy efforts and get involved in Organizations within our specialty at every level. The ACEP Council is not just an event; it is a call to action for all of us to participate in shaping the future of our profession. I encourage every emergency medicine resident to consider attending the ACEP Council. It is an opportunity to not only learn and grow but also to contribute to a vital conversation that affects our practice and our patients.
