Lauren Lodico, NSNA President, Summer Memo

Hello fellow NSNA members and colleagues!
 
I hope you are all getting a chance to enjoy the summer, the warm weather, and take some time for yourselves to de-stress.
 
A huge congratulations to the graduates all over the country! It is no small feat to graduate from nursing school and I look forward to the profession being in your fantastic hands. For those who are taking summer classes or are still in the thick of it, I believe in all of you and know that you will continue to do your best in the semesters ahead. As many of us know, nursing school is considered one of the hardest degrees by far, but our dedication is stronger! As the saying goes, there is no plan B . . . we will become nurses! I was amazed by this past convention to hear from all of you and the differences in our nursing programs that make our experiences so unique! That is one of the best things about NSNA—the community!
 
It is my privilege to serve as your 2023-2024 NSNA President and want to thank all of you for allowing me this honor. It is truly an immense distinction to serve on this amazing Board of Directors that has been working tirelessly to promote NSNA, install modernized change, and make NSNA better than ever before. It is truly a pleasure to be able to call myself apart of this year’s Board of Directors and our team is so thrilled to be able to share our excitement with all the constituents of NSNA at our MidYear Conference in San Diego, California from November 2-5, 2023.
