Note from the ACDIS Associate Editor

Holding down the fort

by Carolyn Riel

It’s hard to believe that it’s already the first week of August. Not that summer is over by any means, but so far it has seemed to have flown by. Maybe it’s because we haven’t really be able to do “normal summer things,” like go to the beach with friends and stop on the way home for some lobster rolls (a major benefit of living in New England). Any cookouts have been sparse and socially distant, and “end of the week” celebratory drinks have been downed on personal patios instead of the local bar.

Blog Highlight

Do you have a tip, story, or perspective to share with the broader ACDIS and CDI community? If you’re interested in writing a piece for the Blog, here are a couple guidelines for you:

  • Length: Typically, 500-700 words. If your post is longer, we may break it into two posts for readability.
  • Content: All things CDI (and coding too)! We love hearing about your experiences and the lessons you’ve learned about CDI along the way.

Besides those two guidelines, all you have to do is submit your piece to ACDIS Associate Editor Carolyn Riel (criel@acdis.org).
