Register Today for PSNA Annual Summit

Can you believe that the PSNA 98th Annual Summit is less than one month away? This year's event is going to be excellent, we are sure you will not be disappointed.

The keynote address, which will be presented by Dr. Elizabeth Norman, will inspire you as she tells the true story of American military nurses who served in the Philippines during WWII. Their little known story is one of perseverance and determination.

Dr. Norman will also be signing her nationally recognized book "We Band of Angels", which tells this story, after the keynote address.

Invite a friend, colleague, or coworker to attend the annual summit with you. We want to pack the house for Dr. Norman's speech and encourage you to register for the summit today!
