Board Chair Dr. Frank Guyette stated in a press release that Jan Eichel was unanimously selected after a nationwide search.

鈥淎mong the talented people we interviewed, Jan Eichel clearly rose to the top on the strength of her vision, energy, and new ideas for medical transport safety certification,鈥 Guyette said. 鈥淪he recognizes the various ways the accreditation process might serve our customers even more effectively in the future.
