AAMI Foundation & TRIMEDX John D. Hughes Iconoclast Award
John Hughes was a longtime AAMI member and leader - a former member of the AAMI Board of Directors, the BI&T Editorial Board, TMC, the Annual Conference Planning Committee, and countless other committees and task forces. John was also one of the early adopters of bridging the gap between clinical engineering and information technology. He worked at the Washington Hospital Center, as well as Bon Secours Health System, as corporate director for contract administration before retiring. The ultimate iconoclast, John never hesitated to speak his mind, argue his point, and push for new and unconventional approaches and thinking to healthcare technology.
In honor of John Hughes, this award recognizes an individual who pushes the boundaries of the HTM professional and demonstrates individual excellence, achievement, and leadership.
Above all else, this award recognizes individuals with critical thinking skills, who have demonstrated a willingness to speak up and challenge the norm for the betterment of the HTM field. Thanks to the generous support of TRIMEDX, this award includes a plaque and a $1,000 check to be presented at the AAMI Exchange.

How to support the AAMI Foundation
The AAMI Foundation is a nonprofit, politically neutral 501(c)(3) organization that provides evidence-based, best-in-class practices regarding the use of healthcare technology and related systems. We rely upon your support to ensure our multiple stakeholders have access to information that is crucial to creating a safe healthcare environment for themselves and others.
Since 1967, the Foundation has worked alongside our affiliate, AAMI, to generate and to promote the safe use of complex healthcare technology. Patient safety and positive outcomes are a result of sound policies and mindful execution. With the increasing availability of technology health-ware, we all must work together with a shared common vision of a safe healthcare ecosystem.
Our work would not be possible without the support we receive from individuals, private foundations, corporations, and government agencies. We invite you to support our mission by making a contribution to the AAMI Foundation.
