The Edutainer with Dr. Erin L. Albert

Listen in, and I can't wait to hear from you on what YOUR favorite things were of your 2019!

Chad Priest is a fascinating healthcare professional. He currently serves as the head of the Indiana Red Cross, and soon to be expanding into the Midwest Red Cross. He also professionally is trained as an EMT, Nurse, and Attorney. His area of specialty is disaster preparation and relief.

Chad was kind enough to speaking in my Nontraditional Healthcare Professional Elective this fall, and now in turn has invited me to speak at the red cross about one of my pet peeves - on meetings! LOL. Give a listen to my conversation with Chad for a different set of ideas on healthcare career development - and if you can, help out at your own local red cross, wherever in the world that is or happens to be!
