| Note: Due to an unforeseen circumstance Ashby Wolfe, CMO Region 9 for CMS, is unable to present at our 10th annual conference in Las Vegas. But we are honored to announce that Sorrel King will now be joining us on the podium. In 2001, Sorrel's daughter Josie died as a result of medical errors. Consumed by grief, Sorrel was determined to honor Josie's memory. She and her husband created the Josie King Foundation. Setting out to prevent patients from being harmed or killed by medical errors, she entered a world unknown to her—the health care industry. Sorrel King has become a nationally renowned patient safety advocate. As a public speaker she travels the country spreading her message to hospitals, doctors, nurses, CEOs, board members, medical/nursing students and more in hopes that Josie's story will inspire change thus creating a better, safer healthcare industry for us all. Sorrel has spoken to hundreds of organizations reaching thousands of healthcare professionals. Sorrel's book Josie's Story was published in September 2009 by Grove/Atlantic, Inc. Josie's Story was named one of the best health books in 2009 by the Wall Street Journal, and won the "First Book" award at the 2010 "Books for a Better Life" Awards. Josie's Story is being used in medical and nursing schools around the country. Sorrel was chosen as one of "50 Women Changing the World" by Woman's Day magazine in February 2010. We hope you will attend the 10th annual ACDIS conference to hear Sorrel’s inspiring story of courage and change.
