Tri City MIG Chair Report<br />
Denise Waibel-Rycek, MSN, RN<br />
This has been a year to regain our focus. In August we had a meeting and heard Heather Kaestner APRN talk about<br />
her four mission trips. We then developed plans for the next year.<br />
Western <strong>Nebraska</strong> Region 1 MIG<br />
Wendy Wells, BS, BSN, MSN, RN<br />
Region 1 MIG met for the annual health professions picnic in August 2018. There was no 5K run as the leaders for<br />
this were unavailable due to pregnancy and advancing their education.<br />
Region 1 MIG of the NNA met in April to discuss upcoming plans at the Steel Grill and enjoyed steak nachos.<br />
The annual <strong>Nurses</strong> Day event featured NNA President Douglass Haas who presented twice for area nurses on the<br />
importance of a professional portfolio. He was well received. This event was sponsored by Regional West Medical<br />
Center, Region 1 MIG of NNA and the <strong>Nebraska</strong> Panhandle Area Health Education Center.<br />
The Region 1 5K walk/run date is set for Saturday, August 24 at 9AM at Lake Minatare. Registration forms are on<br />
the “NNA Run” Facebook page. Our annual Welcome/Welcome back picnic is scheduled for Thursday, September 5<br />
from 4-6pm, location to be announced. Local members look forward to attending the annual convention in Kearney<br />
in October. Questions and/or comments can be addressed to Wendy Wells wwells@unmc.edu or 308-641-7190 (call<br />
or text).<br />
