The Wyoming Nursing Association is pleased to present our 2022 Nursing Summit and Convention, titled, Guardians of Nursing: Protecting Patients, Protecting Ourselves.  The past two years have taken their toll on Wyoming nurses both personally and professionally.  Join us on Thursday, September 22 for the Honoring Wyoming Nurses Celebration honoring all Wyoming nurses as we take some time to reflect and celebrate WNA Nursing Award winners from 2020, 2021, and 2022. In addition, you will have the opportunity to network and visit with exhibitors. Attendees will be provided with two drink tickets (cash bar available) as well as heavy hors d’oeuvers.

On Friday, September 23rd, our education sessions will focus on topics such as communication, leadership, and examining the systems in place that are meant to protect not only our patients but also health care workers.
