President’s Letter
Nov. 1, 2011
Wow, what a busy year this has been. The WARN board members have been busy working on the half-day and annual conference agendas. It’s been fun to brainstorm ideas and then seek out the speakers who can share their knowledge and experiences with us. Our last conference was at Alexian Village in Milwaukee on Oct. 19. It was a great conference with topics on Diabetic Wound Management and Patient Education.
Our next conference is January 2012 at Sacred Heart Rehabilitation Institute in Milwaukee. The conference is on Movement – Challenges and Solutions. Managing tone and spasticity will be topics that will be addressed at the conference.
You will be receiving a “Save the Date” postcard in the mail soon for the annual WARN conference. This year it will be at the Chula Vista in Wisconsin Dells on April 16, 2012. The title of the conference is “Celebrate the Power of Nursing.” We have arranged to have great speakers at this conference. I really hope to see many of you at the conference.
Just a reminder, don’t forget about the nominations for the Rising Star, Nurse Excellence Award and Community Award. The winners of these awards will be announced at the annual WARN conference on April 16, 2012. Nomination forms can be found on the WARN website.
Just a reminder, we are still accepting nominations for President Elect, Program Co-chair and Secretary/Treasurer. You do not need to have experience for any of these positions. The board members will provide orientation to the position and will provide the support you need. Nominations will be accepted through March 2012. If you have questions about any of these positions, please don’t hesitate to contact any of the board members.
Terry Gion
