To all of our graduates:
As Salus prepares to launch you - our newest group of Salus graduates - I want to extend the University’s congratulations on attaining this significant accomplishment!
As you will hear during the commencement ceremony, tomorrow marks the completion of the first, truly significant step you all have taken to become a member of our healthcare ecosystem. You are ready! You’ve all embarked on extremely exciting and rewarding careers and your ability to help people improve their lives is a real gift, one that needs to be cherished, honed and continually nurtured. It is our hope and expectation that you’ll take full advantage of all that you’ve learned during your time at Salus and apply those skills with the utmost care and sensitivity to those patients and clients you will care for.
As I’ll remind you tomorrow, you’ll be surrounded by all sorts of technology to assist you in doing your job. It will be important to remember that these technologies are adjuncts to finding the best ways to care for your patients and clients. Remember to treat your patients and not the technology.
Finally, when you chose healthcare as a career, you’ve also chosen a profession requiring a commitment to life-long learning. Salus will always be your academic home! Never stop asking questions, challenging your assumptions and sharpening your skills. We’ll be there to help.
Congratulations again on a job exceptionally well done. We’re all very proud of you.
One additional note about tomorrow’s ceremony. As you all know, the Kimmel Center requires all of us to show proof of vaccination and to be masked inside. I also ask that, as an additional precaution, if you have a home test available to you, you test prior to the ceremony.
Thank you!
Mike
