Health Information Professionals (HIP)  week celebrates Health Information Professionals, with a theme this year of “Elevating Professionals, Empowering Tomorrow”.

On behalf of the National Board of Directors and all members of TAC, I would like to recognize HIP Week taking place from October 17-21, and take this time to acknowledge the expertise, hard work and dedication of all Health Information Professionals across Canada, but in particular the members of the Trauma Registry Information Specialists of Canada (TRISC )  group who are an important subgroup within TAC. We are grateful to your contributions to the TAC vision to “improve the lives of all those affected by or at risk of traumatic injury”.

As a subgroup of the Trauma Association of Canada, the TRISC mission is to promote the utilization of timely, high quality trauma information for trauma system development, program planning, resource utilization, education, research, and quality improvement that strive for the improvement of trauma care delivery, patient outcomes and injury prevention practices in Canada.  It provides a national forum for Trauma Registry Information Specialists to network.

If you are a health information specialist in Canada you may want to consider becoming a member of the TRISC group (included with a TAC membership) to connect with colleagues. To learn more about TRISC READ HERE
