Happy New Year!

It's a new day...and year for nursing.  We are gearing up in California for the ACNL (Association of California Nurse Leaders) Annual Meeting in Sacramento next month.  I am registered and excited about the learning and networking opportunities.  The conference will open on Sunday with committee meetings, of which I am a member of the voice of nursing leaders, nursing leadership subcommittee.  It will be an exciting time to discuss the next steps for nursing leaders in California, and around the country as we partner, like never before with our MD colleagues, fellow administrators, and even politicians, to re-empower nursing.  This week the Congress will reconvene in Washington, DC and I'm hopeful that we will hear more soon about additional funding for nurse education programs.  Look forward to an update on my next blog.  Lots more to come...stay tuned. 

All the best,

Nurse Leader
