For months Elaine has been planning for the National League for Nursing’s 125th year celebration in Chicago . It is an awesome responsibility which required extraordinary dedication and diligence to details.The conference so far has been outstanding and all the hours she spent have paid off with outstanding results. The 1500 nurse educators are responsible for the future health care of the nation and it is encouraging to see such talent and dedication . Nurses are always voted as the most trusted occupation and being here and listening to the speakers gives me confidence and belief that the future is bright and their students will embrace the core values they promote.The program ends this evening with a gala dinner to celebrate the past and to renew the pathfinder role of nursing in the future.
