Celebrating 60 Years - Sharpening Our Image Over the Generations: In Honor of NSNA's 60th Diamond Anniversary


Established in 1993, the goal of the Image of Nursing program is to dispel any misconceptions the public may have of nurses and the profession of nursing by re-educating them; educating nursing students on how to project a positive image of nursing; and help students understand the meaning of professionalism.
