Brandi Borden, President, Winter-Spring Memo

Happy New Year NSNA members!

I hope you had a fantastic winter break celebrating the holidays, relaxing, and creating special memories with family and friends.

Last year, we learned to social distance to protect ourselves, loved ones, and each other; navigate online learning platforms to continue our education; utilize the simulation lab when real patient clinicals were no longer an option; participate in many virtual meetings, conferences, and conventions; and contact friends when needing help or support when school or life became too stressful.

​Congratulations to the graduating class of 2020! You overcame obstacles and persevered. I wish you the best as you begin your nursing careers. For everyone who is still in nursing school, we are more prepared due to challenges we faced last year. It is my hope that we create an exceptional year.
