CME's Shannon Trahan and Colby Trahan had a great time connecting with peers at the AMFP Houston’s 11th Annual Houston Hospital, Outpatient Facilities & Medical Office Buildings Summit this week!

What were some of the biggest topics of conversation at the event?
- how healthcare organizations are responding to capital pressures,
- building off-site infrastructures such as ASCs, clinics, and urgent care centers to accommodate growing patient populations,
- delivering quality care while balancing budget and timelines

For those who attended, what was your biggest takeaway from the event? Let us know in the comments!

Despite a rainy start, it turned out to be a great day on the course at the Old Natchez Country Club! ⛳

This week, CME's Katie Nipper and Brock Hammat attended the HealthTrust Golf Tournament in support of Breakthrough T1D. While the morning brought plenty of rain and schedule adjustments, the weather cleared for a beautiful afternoon filled with some friendly competition and great conversations.

We were also proud to sponsor a Mojo's Tacos food truck that kept attendees fueled with snacks, tacos, and margaritas throughout the day!

We're very proud to share that our President and CEO, KC Meleski, has assumed the position of Chair of the Health Industry Distributors Association (HIDA) Board of Directors.

Please join us in congratulating KC! 👏

KC's leadership, industry expertise, and long-standing commitment to advancing healthcare distribution have been instrumental in CME's continued growth and success, and we couldn't be more excited to see him step into this strategic leadership role with HIDA.

This month’s spotlight goes to someone who’s always ready to roll with whatever the day brings. Meet HR Systems Specialist, Bryan Warford!

Bryan joined CME two years ago after spending nearly a decade living and working in Japan. Since then, no two days have looked the same... and that’s exactly what he enjoys about the role:

“Working at CME has been full of excitement with every day bringing something new. There are so many opportunities to grow and use your talents here," he shares.

Outside of work, Bryan is a member of a weekly bowling league and a big fan of all kinds of games: tabletop, board, video, you name it. He’s also got a serious travel streak going: having visited 23 of Japan’s 47 prefectures and a similar number of U.S. states. Safe to say, he's always on the move!

We’re lucky to have you on the team, Bryan!

California’s SB 1953 deadline is more than a compliance milestone. It's a reminder that healthcare infrastructures must be ready to support patient care in moments of crisis while keeping care environments safe and fully functional.

In this week's blog post, KC Meleski, President & CEO of CME Corp., shares why seismic readiness starts long before construction and depends on careful planning and early coordination across all phases of a project.

For California healthcare leaders, is your facility seismic compliant and prepared to remain operational following a major seismic event?

This weekend, we pause:
To remember and honor the men and women who have given their lives to service to this country.
To hold close the families and communities who miss them and treasure their memory.
To wish our teams, customers, and partners a safe Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

Caroline Hitchcock, Becky Hammond, and Mason Webb were on the ground in Louisville this week, catching up with peers at the Health Connect Partners (HCP) Spring Hospital Pharmacy Conference!
