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.
Happy New Year, Future Nurses!
As we step into 2025, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the amazing experiences we’ve shared together and to express how truly honored I am to serve as Imprint Editor and Chair of the Image of Nursing Committee. These roles have been the highlight of my nursing career thus far, and I feel incredibly fortunate to work alongside such passionate students, staff, and faculty who are all dedicated to shaping the future of nursing. The commitment and energy you bring to the organization are truly inspiring, and I can’t wait to see what we’ll accomplish together in 2025! Read full Spring 2025 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.
