Mr. Holtz, let Vein Access Technologies improve the 'blood donation procedure' for your Techs and your Donors. VAT's STEM-method for the venipuncture and for the POC finger stick blood collection improve the success rate of the donation, reduces the compromise and failure rate, & improves the likelihood of a repeat donation. Current POC methods result in hemolysis of the blood sample, falsely indicating they are 'anemic', when they aren't. The new VAT method (gravity method) does NOT causes hemolysis - ACCURATE RESULTS follow. Current venipuncture methods frequently cause vein rupture, bruising, pain, fear - and sometimes long term recovery (from what should have been an inspirational donation), not to mention the occasional permanent injury. Not all veins are created equal; and not all veins should be stuck. PLEASE - THERE IS NOTHING TO LOSE by investigating VATmethod.com Or visit STEM21cVA.com for the science of it - The Science Behind the Skill of Vein Access for Blood Donation book describes it all. This is a new era for ARC, with a new leader - it's time for a new/next generation venipuncture and POC blood collection. 😊

A Seat at the Table: Shaping the Future of Public Education Last week, I had the incredible honor of participating in a groundbreaking gathering of superintendents who are members of The Network of Distinguished Educators. Reflecting on this inaugural two-day meeting, I'm filled with profound gratitude and excitement for the future of public education in America. To say I felt blessed to be there would be an understatement. Imagine being in a room where the collective experience, wisdom, and passion for education was only surpassed by each individual's humility and hope for a brighter tomorrow! These leaders, each a powerhouse in their own right, came together with a shared vision: to positively impact public education across our nation. Having a seat at that table - not just to observe, but to actively contribute to shaping the organization's future direction and initiatives - was truly a "pinch me, I'm dreaming" moment. The energy in the room was palpable. Ideas were flying, challenges were being dissected, and innovative solutions were emerging in real-time. No one was disillusioned about the gravity of the work ahead, but what struck me most was the genuine commitment to making a difference. This wasn't about buzzwords or flashy initiatives. It was about rolling up our sleeves and tackling the real issues facing our schools, teachers, and most importantly, our students. As we wrapped up the second day, I couldn't help but feel a surge of hope. The road ahead in public education may have its challenges, but with leaders like these at the helm, and organizations committed to meaningful change, the future looks brighter than ever. To my fellow education enthusiasts out there, buckle up! We're in for an exciting ride. The work we've begun has the potential to create waves of positive change across the educational landscape. I'm beyond excited to see where this journey leads and grateful for the opportunity to play a small part in it. Here's to the future of public education – may it be as bright and promising as the students we serve! #EdChat #SuptChat #PublicEducation #EducationalLeadership #FutureOfLearning #GratefulHeart

Will the Duttons keep Yellowstone? How many Oscars did Oppenheimer win? Did Caitlin Clark surpass Pete Maravich to become the all-time leading scorer in NCAA basketball? Find the answers to these questions and more in the 2024 Annual Report! The report can be found at https://lnkd.in/gV2npVKc -------------------------------Correction------------------------------------ We wish to advise everyone that the 2024 Annual Report actually details the activities of the Neil Porter Legacy in 2024, not world events. The mistake was made by the NPL's social media guru. However if you'd like to know the answers... Hopefully (but not Jamie Dutton), 7 and yes.
