The Delaware Respiratory Care has an interactive communication tool known as a list serv. The list serv allows the Board to communicate with its members in a rapid email fashion. The list serv employs a "moderator" that screens messages prior to their posting to the list. The use of a moderator cuts down on the volume of mail not suited for the list. The list is also blocked so that the members emails cannot be spammed.

List members can email the list to ask questions or share ideas and resources. You must be add yourself to the list before you can email the list. The list is currently configured to prevent any attachments from being sent to the list, thereby reducing the chance of any virus spreading to all the members of the list.

Any respiratory practitioner can add themselves or remove themselves from the list at any time by simply sending an email to: dsrc.org@gmailcom

The list serve has become an effective communication tool for our organization. The Board plans to distribute its newsletter (alert updates) via the list and other society events. The email address for the list is listserv@delawarelung.org.

If you would like to post a message to those on the list serve, click on the link above.

If you have specific questions regarding the list serv, or have difficulty adding yourself or removing yourself from the list, simply email the webmaster with your request to be removed or added. If you know of another organization that would like a list serv, please email the webmaster for information on list set-up and design.

To be removed from the list, send an email to dsrc.org@gmailcomand type the following with out the quotes "unsubscribe dsrc youremail@yourdomain.com" in the body of the email.

Each year for the past 3 years the DSRC recognizes respiratory care practitioners in our community. The awards are given to those who advanced the practice of respiratory care throughout the year.

The two awards that are currently being given are the

DSRC Community Health Award

Patricia Blevins Award for Advancement of the Practice of Respiratory Care

Patricia M. Blevins Award

The award was named after Senator Blevins because she was instrumental in gaining licensure for the Respiratory Care Practitioners in our state. Likewise, the recipient of this award should be someone who works to advance the practice of Respiratory Care Professionals. This person should be considered a role model of professional development in his/her field, and should be respected as a leader in the community in which they practice.

 

The Delaware Society for Respiratory Care
Community Health Award

This first award was given to Senator McBride for his work toward the promotion of a Smoke-Free Delaware. The recipient of this award should be respected for the work they do to improve the health in the community. It is never enough to just treat illness, we need to strive to prevent illness and improve health in our communities. This person should be a respected member of the community who has worked to improve the health of the community at large.
