Members!
Join us next Wednesday, May 27th for a virtual meeting where we plan to review the proposed resolutions in preparation for the 2020 RNAO AGM. This year there are five proposals, and by tuning in you will have the chance to voice your thoughts on the future direction of RNAO.
This meeting will be facilitated via Zoom, and the details and link are included below. Prior registration is not required, and this event is open to all members.
Fellow nurses,
We hope you are remaining well during these demanding times, and are also remembering to care for yourselves on a daily basis. The work you continue to do is astounding, and without a doubt contributes to the health of Ontario and the citizens for which are lucky enough to call it home.
Hi Members,
We regret to inform you that based on Health Canada's recommendations regarding large gatherings, we have decided to post-pone the upcoming Symposium. For those who had registered, we thank you for your eagerness and drive for discussion surrounding this emerging topic, and we hope to see you in the fall!
Members! We have an exciting announcement that we would like to share with you. Region 10 is once again hosting a free Symposium later this month, and we would love for you to attend. This year's topic is "Clearing the Air on Vaping", and will welcome experts including members from Ottawa Public Health, a cannabis consultant and even a Respirologist. Did I mention this event is being moderated by RNAO CEO Dr. Doris Grinspun?
Have your questions answered and get the facts on this emerging health topic!
Members,
This is your reminder of our upcoming Membership Meeting on February 24th from 18:30 - 20:00. As usual, it will be held in the Jaguar Room at 100 Constellation Drive (Mary Pitt Building) in Nepean right across the road from Algonquin College!
Happy February!
Tired of the long cold winter nights? Why not warm up with Region 10 at their next Membership Meeting on February 24th! The Ottawa Chapter is happy to welcome Mwali Muray, a PhD candidate at the University of Ottawa who will be delivering an informative discussion surrounding the experience of linguistic minority populations, and the realities faced by francophone patients and their nursing care providers in Ontario.
