Note from the ACDIS Editor: Happy CDI Week Eve!

by Jess Fluegel

When was the last time you celebrated yourself? Too often, we wait until an official anniversary, designated vacation, or obligatory family function to set aside time for celebration. But as I’ve become involved in all the preparations ACDIS puts into CDI Week, I realize more and more how important it is to recognize and appreciate those around us—including ourselves!

This year our theme for CDI Week is CDI in Orbit: Infinite Opportunities, and ACDIS has a host of resources, activities, education, and discounts to help you, and your department make the most of this important week.

First, get in the CDI Week spirit and check out the following resources from the Furthering Education Committee:

• A list of CDI Week activity ideas
• A space-themed Mad Lib
• A stellar self-care handout
• A CDI Week background for your video calls
• A CDI certifications handout

Then, keep a lookout for all the resources, education, and fun coming your way next week:

• The 2024 CDI Week Industry Survey Report
• A crossword puzzle and word find puzzle
• Daily discounts on ACDIS books, online education, and more
• The 2024 CDI Week State of the Industry webinar on Thursday, September 19, 1-2:30 p.m. eastern (register here!)
• Daily Q&As on industry survey topics from the Furthering Education Committee
• Contest giveaways on our Facebook social media page! 

I hope you have an absolutely stellar time in the coming week, and also take this opportunity to reach out to those in your orbit. One way you can always improve a celebration is by inviting others to share it!
