Members Showcase 65th Anniversary of AARC

March 13, 2012

We asked, and you delivered. We invited you to submit pictures depicting the 65th anniversary of the AARC. And lots of you played along.

They were masterpieces of creativity, imagination, and loyalty to the AARC. While we aren’t likely to see these masterpieces in a museum, they are priceless to us. Thanks to all who participated.

Submissions seemed to revolve around three themes: 1) laying out respiratory equipment in the configuration of a 65, 2) playing on the cute kid/dog theme and 3) doctoring up an image to be commemorative in some way. Applying to Medicare on the AARC’s behalf was a light bulb moment for someone. And a video of a 65-year old song that gets right to the heart of what respiratory therapists do was also a hoot to watch.

We hope you enjoy them too! Watch for more information about the 65th anniversary of AARC in the April issue of AARC Times.
