In March 2022, Dr. Dany Westerband was elected as the director of the prestigious "Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS)" program for a four-year term. Beyond this election, Dr. Dany Westerband, known for his modesty, has a life and medical career that one day deserves recognition in a society increasingly in search of role models. In the announcement, Dr. Henriot St-Gérard introduced the ATLS program before discussing the election.

"The Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) program is well-known among physicians and healthcare professionals in general. Initiated in 1978 by the Committee on Trauma (COT) of the American College of Surgeons (ACS), this course would become the standard for the assessment, treatment, and follow-up of surgical trauma victims in the United States and Canada."
