National Nursing Week
FCNIG Members: A Message for National Nursing Week 2020
This year of the pandemic, National Nursing Week will be celebrated and remembered with greater significance. More than ever we can acknowledge the unlimited sacrifices and contributions nurses have made working on the front-lines in response to COVID-19. Even though we are all focused on the more crucial challenges, we can benefit by pausing to reflect on what National Nursing Week means to us.
Bylaw CHanges
Dear FCNIG member,
The FCNIG Executive has met and revised the bylaws. These changes were presented at our AGM in November, and are not to approved by membership, via ‘one member one vote’. The bylaw changes are a result of our name change to Faith Community Nursing Interest Group (FCNIG). Additional changes comply with RNAO new guidelines for our executive structure positions and voting procedure.
