North Coast Ohio SGNA
Scholarship to Honor our Friend
The Board of NCOSGNA wished to commemorate the life of our dear friend and colleague, Linda VanVoorhis Smith. Linda was an enthusiastic part of our Board. She worked on the Education Committee as well as attending every Board meeting to help with the planning of events for our region. Linda loved attending SGNA's Annual Course. It excited her to learn new things, visit new cities and to network with other nurses from around the country. She looked forward to that week every year. Each year we offer a scholarship to attend the SGNA Annual Course and it will now be known as the Linda VanVoorhis Smith Scholarship for Annual Course. It is our hope that her enthusiasm for this event will live on in the future recipients of this scholarship.
SGNA 37th National Course
April 30th - May 5th, 2010
Orlando, Florida
NCOSGNA had 7 members representing our area. It was a very good meeting, enjoyed by all. In addition to learning we had two members that won scholarships to help pay their way and our Jim Collins won second place for his poster presentation on Reducing Endoscope Repairs with Education. We hope that everyone will consider going to next years Nationals in Indianapolis, Indiana - - start planning now!
