October Conference Recap

Wow. What a day we filled the walls with 100 nurses from PA, VA and NY hungry to grow and be surrounded by other nurses ready to be encouraged and poured into. On the itinerary was 4 incredible speakers, endless food, gifts, vendors, connection, community and 100 nurses ready to grow and change the nursing profession!

Check out our photos taken by Keziah Renee Photography of our event!

Details:

Once our attendees checked in, grabbed their lanyards and bag of donated gifts, they started with shopping at local vendors, connection with speakers and nurses, got coffee and sweet treats from vendor trucks & light breakfast refreshments!

We started our conference with incredible speakers and local business leaders also in the nursing profession sharing about how they are impacting the nursing community.

Our speakers came from Pennsylvania, New York, Maine and Michigan - all highly educated and still working in the trenches alongside us. While lecture style in nature, they all gave time for implementation and discussion time

Nurses had plenty of time in the afternoon to connect with one another, eat lunch from Speckled Hen, continue shopping at our vendors and creating lasting relationships over content delivered from our speakers!

“Understanding my own stories while also carrying the stories of my patients is something impactful that I learned today that will really make a huge difference in how I nurse.” ~Mindy Beiler, ER nurse

“Wow. I was so burnt out and did not even know it. I am leaving today with ways to protect my mental health and get out of burn out.” ~Kelly Arnold, L&D nurse

“The excitement was palpable in the room! These nurses are change makers! The support of their hearts and minds MATTERS and they were really soaking it all in!” ~Courtney Kindrew, Neuro ICU nurse
