[color=#6163b8]ltc nursing association established
the american association for long term care nursing (aaltcn) has recently been launched for the purpose of advancing excellence in the specialty of long-term care nursing by:
* uniting various categories of long-term care nursing staff in common goals and needs.
* providing relevant educational resources that bridge current best practices with bedside practice.
* bringing visibility and respect to long-term care nursing caregivers.
* advocating for long-term care nursing caregivers.
* supporting and promoting excellence in care for consumers of long-term care.
...instead of individual memberships, the nursing department will join aaltcn for one single membership fee.
details on other types of special memberships for individuals not employed by a facility and for business partners are available at the new association's web site: www.ltcnursing.org ...
