00:00:00.125 --> 00:00:02.752
Dr. Pullen: Hello everyone - and thank you for joining us today.

2
00:00:02.752 --> 00:00:05.630
My name is Carolyn Pullen and I'm the CEO

3
00:00:05.630 --> 00:00:08.133
of the Canadian Cardiovascular Society.

4
00:00:08.133 --> 00:00:13.680
Welcome to the inaugural
CCS RBC webinar series

5
00:00:13.680 --> 00:00:16.307
hosted by RBC Healthcare,

6
00:00:16.307 --> 00:00:18.685
our Affinity Program partner

7
00:00:18.685 --> 00:00:21.771
for private premium financial services.

8
00:00:21.771 --> 00:00:24.399
Knowledge-sharing and collaboration

9
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:27.068
is a key reason this society exists.

10
00:00:27.068 --> 00:00:30.405
They are an integral part of our member offering.

11
00:00:30.405 --> 00:00:33.491
Taking care of ourselves and
our professional community

12
00:00:33.491 --> 00:00:38.037
is essential so that we can serve others to our best ability.

13
00:00:38.037 --> 00:00:42.667
And that's one of the reasons
CCS turned to RBC for solutions

14
00:00:42.667 --> 00:00:44.961
that can uniquely help our members

15
00:00:44.961 --> 00:00:47.922
in both professional and personal

16
00:00:47.922 --> 00:00:49.883
aspects of their lives.

17
00:00:49.883 --> 00:00:53.803
We believe our partnership with RBC Healthcare is a strong fit

18
00:00:53.803 --> 00:00:56.055
for CCS and our members.

19
00:00:56.055 --> 00:00:59.642
Together with RBC Healthcare, we've designed a

20
00:00:59.642 --> 00:01:04.105
unique banking affinity program exclusively for you.

21
00:01:04.105 --> 00:01:08.401
There is no other program like this available in Canada.

22
00:01:08.401 --> 00:01:11.529
Your CCS membership unlocks

23
00:01:11.529 --> 00:01:14.699
premium benefits on financial products,

24
00:01:14.699 --> 00:01:18.203
practice management solutions, and lifestyle rewards,

25
00:01:18.203 --> 00:01:21.623
as well as specialized financial advice and support

26
00:01:21.623 --> 00:01:23.374
that will help you today,

27
00:01:23.374 --> 00:01:26.127
tomorrow and through your career.

28
00:01:26.127 --> 00:01:29.130
This webinar series is one of many initiatives

29
00:01:29.130 --> 00:01:31.841
we are working on with RBC Healthcare

30
00:01:31.841 --> 00:01:35.136
to serve cardiovascular professionals across Canada,

31
00:01:35.136 --> 00:01:37.680
and enhance membership in CCS

32
00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:41.768
by rewarding you in new ways for your commitment to the society.

33
00:01:41.768 --> 00:01:45.814
This new offering has also come at the right time.

34
00:01:45.814 --> 00:01:48.733
All of us have faced pressures in the last year

35
00:01:48.733 --> 00:01:50.693
unlike any other time.

36
00:01:50.693 --> 00:01:52.862
It is important to me that knowing

37
00:01:52.862 --> 00:01:56.032
how thinly everyone is stretched in this moment,

38
00:01:56.032 --> 00:01:59.285
CCS has found an excellent partner in RBC.

39
00:01:59.285 --> 00:02:01.913
The program we have developed can help relieve

40
00:02:01.913 --> 00:02:05.333
some of the pressures you may be facing that take you away

41
00:02:05.333 --> 00:02:09.003
from your focus on patients and family.

42
00:02:09.003 --> 00:02:12.090
Banking and tailored financial services that address

43
00:02:12.090 --> 00:02:16.052
the realities of physician life make a difference.

44
00:02:16.052 --> 00:02:19.097
Strategic financial advice at every career stage

45
00:02:19.097 --> 00:02:21.724
is important and can make a measurable difference

46
00:02:21.724 --> 00:02:23.685
now and in your future.

47
00:02:23.685 --> 00:02:25.520
In the past, the healthcare industry

48
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:28.189
has been fairly immune to recessions,

49
00:02:28.189 --> 00:02:31.276
as healthcare demand is a constant thing.

50
00:02:31.276 --> 00:02:33.444
But this time is different.

51
00:02:33.444 --> 00:02:37.365
These extraordinary times have affected many of us,

52
00:02:37.365 --> 00:02:40.034
and heart specialists are no exception.

53
00:02:40.034 --> 00:02:42.370
How you manage your practice,

54
00:02:42.370 --> 00:02:45.039
and practice your specialty, has changed.

55
00:02:45.039 --> 00:02:48.918
And while we can't predict the
future, one thing is certain;

56
00:02:48.918 --> 00:02:51.421
the pandemic has tested CCS members

57
00:02:51.421 --> 00:02:54.799
professionally and personally like never before.

58
00:02:54.799 --> 00:02:57.343
These are among the challenging and relevant topics,

59
00:02:57.343 --> 00:03:00.305
that will be addressed
in our webinar series.

60
00:03:00.305 --> 00:03:03.474
We hope you find that the
webinars are informative,

61
00:03:03.474 --> 00:03:05.184
and you will be able to gain insights on

62
00:03:05.184 --> 00:03:07.520
what you can do today to ensure you achieve

63
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.315
your personal and professional goals in the future.

64
00:03:10.315 --> 00:03:15.653
As always, we thank you for being involved in the CSS community.

65
00:03:15.653 --> 00:03:18.740
Together, we can continue
building strong heart teams

66
00:03:18.740 --> 00:03:20.158
in a heart-healthy Canada.
