 Nine nurses met in Las Vegas with representatives of state government and brought to the table and incredible mix of knowledge about informatics. "It 'blew' them away," said Martha Drohobyczer, District 3 President. "I was so proud of all of the nurses that attended." Martha reported that some of the issues that the nurses brought up appeared to be fresh ideas that the state representatives had not heard nor considered before. |
