District One President Darlene C. Bujold MSHI, BSN, RN 2018 With the beginning of a new year, district one board members are collaborating on exciting plans for our future. We are committed to growing our membership and engaging our current members in a variety of creative venues. Our current membership numbers 281 nurses with 50 of those coming from Northern NV rural settings. In August of 2018, D1 hosted an educational Symposium in Elko, NV at Great Basin College. This was an opportunity to offer free CEUs to members and at a small fee for rural nurses. Topics included suicide prevention training (SafeTALK) and “Stop the Bleeding.” Darlene C. Bujold The board has found that hosting free breakfasts to members, that include speaker presentations that also provide CEUs to attendees, has proven successful in member engagement and growing our numbers. Nonmembers are responsible only for cost of their meal. We are working closely in support of the Nevada Nurses Foundation (NNF) upcoming events. The 4th annual Big Hat High Tea held at the Governors Mansion in Carson City has become recognized for its whimsical musical venue that each year has presented a themed event complete with amazing décor, fun costumes, delightful entertainment, and luscious food. There is also an event in the planning stages that will recognize standout NV nurses. By supporting these events we gain recognition and grow our membership. We intend to reach out further to our local educational institutions in order to present the benefits of NNA/ ANA membership to graduating nurses. We will also be working closely with the Continuing Education Committee to consider expanding our online offerings to include expansion and revitalization of the NNAs initiative to end incivility and bullying in nursing. We will collaborate with the Website Committee in the exciting new venture of creating NNAs stand-alone website, that will reflect Nevada’s unique character, legislative referendums, and interactively assess members needs and desires. “Nevada Nurses Day at the Legislature” on February 26, 2019 will provide D1 with opportunity to play host to members throughout the state. This event allows our powerful presence to be known throughout the halls of our capital in order to provide a proactive presence in legislative and regulatory activities for professional nursing practice.
