IOM 2010 Future of Nursing Report Update: Webinar and Live Event

December marks 3 years since the release of the IOM Future of Nursing report.  To mark the anniversary, there is an event in Washington with an update by Donna Shalala.  I'm sure most of us know what a dynamic speaker she is.  The event is being simulcast, and it has been suggested as an outreach effort, that states hold viewing parties.  I have included the information below on the event.  I think this would be a great opportunity to get our message out.  Gather together in your NPs groups, at the nursing schools and bring other HCWs to view it with you (fellow RNs, NPs, PAs, MDs, DOs) and your local legislators, business leaders, or anyone just interested in health care and nursing's many solutions to the healing of Florida!

Here is the information:
