** Important Notice **

The Northeast Association of Occupational Health Nurses (NEAOHN) has been in existence since 1915.

Like other member organizations around the country we are faced with many challenges. These challenges include dwindling membership resulting in fewer resources and reduced income. An ad-hoc committee was formed to determine if NEAOHN should continue as a viable, valuable and sustainable organization.

The attached survey will assist us to decide the future role of NEAOHN. Thank you for your participation.

Presidents Message:

Dear Members:

 I hope this message finds you well.  We are all looking forward to spring.

 This has been a very busy winter for your board of directors.  At our post-conference board meeting last June in Vermont, we appointed an ad-hoc committee to review our value to our members.  We were concerned that we may not be fully meeting our mission as a chapter.  Our mission statement reads:

 NEAOHN is to promote the profession of occupational health nursing by serving as a resource to our member states by:

Supporting the goals of AAOHN without duplication of services

Improving and communicating information to our membership

Assisting member states with membership issues and retention

Creating leadership opportunities

Providing networking, mentoring and educational opportunities

Influencing legislation and regulatory issues that impact health and safety

 There are some aspects of our mission we may be doing well, but we are sure there is always room for improvement.  The ad-hoc committee spent a great deal of time and worked hard to design a survey to help us define our future role and the direction this organization needs to follow.  The board has had numerous teleconferences to discuss and finalize the survey.

 We are reaching out to you, our members to help us define our future.  Please take the time to complete the survey.  Any comments you may have will be very welcome.  You are also welcome to contact any board member for information or to make a comment.

Thank you for your time and help.

Sincerely

Sue Connor

President, NEAOHN
