KEYNOTE Empowering Nurses: Leading Change
Ernest J. Grant, PhD, RN, FAAN
Nursing has always faced challenges. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic those issues have become more complex and even more daunting. While healthcare leadership is laser-focused on the problems, there is a perception that the nursing
voice is not always heard. As the largest group of healthcare providers, it is essential that we are one of the leading voices in re-designing the future of healthcare with a particular focus on the role of nurses. Please join us as we
explore critical topics that are key to much needed evolution in our profession.
The FNA Membership Assembly is a time when members of the Florida Nurses Association have the opportunity to convene or come together for several reasons:
Hold the official annual business meetings of the Association, called the sessions of the Membership Assembly, where participating members determine the goals and priorities of the Association.
Participate in educational sessions on timely issues and earn continuing education contact hours at the same time.
Meet new colleagues and nursing students, as well as renew friendships with members from around the state.
Receive reports from the Board of Directors and regional and state structural units.
