APA's 100% Club Gains Another Member Program

For the psychiatric residents at the Henry Ford Health Center in Detroit caring and learning is an act of love. So it's little wonder that each resident is a member of APA and the program belongs to its 100% Club.

“We are delighted to join the APA 100% Club,” said Lisa MacLean, M.D., training director of the Henry Ford Health Center's psychiatry residency program. “Our residents ... deserve commendation for demonstrating the initiative and dedication to become actively involved in their professional organization.”

A photo of the residents in each program that joins the 100% Club is turned into a poster and mailed to every medical school in the United States and Canada to encourage medical students to join APA. In addition, programs in the 100% Club receive a major textbook from American Psychiatric Publishing Inc. and a free online subscription to Focus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning for each year that all of their residents remain APA members.

“We are fortunate to have an excellent faculty who model professionalism and leadership. Our committed faculty members are essential to maintaining the high morale of our program, said MacLean.
