What a great weekend! I wish everyone could have heard Bernice Buresh talk : her book (with Suzanne Gordon) From Silence to Voice: What Nurses Know and Must Communicate to the Public, is an excellent resource for all of us. All the speakers were informative and thought-provoking. Well worth the drive to the east!
As Karen already wrote, the banquet on Friday night was awesome. Then Saturday night was the awards banquet, along with scholarships from the Nursing Foundation. How impressive were those students? Wow! And it was inspiring to hear the work being done by the award winners.
One of the best things about these conventions is seeing old friends and meeting new ones. It was a pleasure to meet Karen in person.
I think we can all be pretty proud of the nurses in Pennsylvania. Listening to the speakers and the work being done by members proves to me yet again that we can accomplish much to advance the practice of nursing and the status of nurses. Hope to see many PA nurses next year!
