Be sure to check out the aaohn.org and neaohn.org websites to read more about these member/chapter accomplishments. Also, at this year’s annual meeting, NEAOHN by-law changes were voted in to match the AAOHN bylaw changes to include the verbiage of “licensed nurse” versus “registered nurse”. The by-law revisions can also be viewed on the NEAOHN website tab for “Mission Statement”.
It has been a pleasure serving as your President for this past year. Many thanks to the NEAOHN board members for all of their hard work and dedication to our association. They have made my role effortless with all their combined talents!
Happy Holidays to you and your families….be safe, and be well!
