Collaboration Café

As we look at the future of nursing we need to continue to advocate for this great profession and ensure we are using appropriate and credible resources to guide our practice.

For this week’s collaboration what are some valuable resources you have learned about in Module 8 and how will you use them in your future role as a professional nurse? Are there any professional organizations you may want to further explore and if so, why?

- Explain why they are relevant to your future role (e.g., continuing education, advocacy, networking).
Reflect and connect
