WSNA invites you to submit a poster abstract for presentation at the Biennial Nursing Convention to be held May 3-5, 2017, at the Tulalip Resort and Convention Center.  (You must register and attend the Convention to have your poster featured.)

WSNA is the leading voice and advocate for nurses in Washington, providing representation and training that allow nurses to reach their full professional potential and focus on caring for patients. As the state’s premier professional nursing organization, we seek to advance nursing knowledge by providing and promoting access to evidence-based research and practice developments. To this end, we invite those who have conducted research relevant to all spheres of nursing practice to share their findings in a poster presentation at the conference. The conference will feature the theme “Creating a culture of safety: Taking responsibility together” by sharing the latest advances in research, practice, technology and health care delivery, and it offers three full days of learning opportunities and collaborative exchange in a beautiful setting.

Accepted research poster abstracts will be published online at http://www.rnconvention.com.
