What is the Role of the Image of Nursing Committee?Established in 1993, the goal of the Image of Nursing program is to dispel any misconceptions the public may have 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.
Welcome back to our 2024 Fall Memo. You know what this means... the next semester is right around the corner. I hope you all had a great summer and are feeling relaxed and prepared to start the incoming school year! I want to wish you the best of luck and encourage you to celebrate your achievements no matter how big or small. You got this!
The Committee and I are SO excited to share with you our three adopted resolutions this year. We feel that these encompass what it means to be a student nurse and directly correlate to our theme for the year. Read full Fall 2024 Memo here ... |
Imprint Photo Submission
Stock images of students and healthcare professionals are often used in each issue; however, we would love to utilize Imprint to promote student nurses, with more NSNA members represented on our pages! It is very important to keep professionalism and image of nursing in mind when sending photos. (Even if it's just a group of classmates in class or studying together in someone's living room floor.)
A few things to consider:
- Every person in a photo submitted must sign and submit a Photo Release Form (click above to download the form)
- Absolutely NO photos of patients (even if they sign a release form)
- Try to keep corporate logos out of the shot (Coke cans, labels, etc.)
- If the photo is in a clinical setting, avoid anything with the hospital/clinic name in the background or you will need to submit a release form from the clinical site itself.
Ideas:
- Try for "active" photos: rather than everyone looking straight into the camera, go for more candid shots, such as a classmate looking at the instructor, two students looking at each other and smiling/laughing; a friend doing research on a laptop in the park; the possibilities are endless!
- Utilize some of the popular smartphone photo apps if you want (Instagram, Hipstamatic, CameraBag), but make sure your quality setting are set to high.
Email your photos to [email protected] - Attn: Imprint Photo Submission
Fax your signed photo release forms to (718) 797-1186 or scan and attach them to your email. Be sure to include the name of each person and their school.
