Calling all
Correctional
RNs!
Feeling frustrated by the lack
of patient advocacy in your correctional medical setting? Want to help shine
more attention on the problems inherent
in correctional nursing? Want to meet and
network with other correctional nurses to
discover workable solutions for strengthening nursing practice in your institutions?
Then you need to attend our first-ever CE course
dedicated to the challenges of nurses working in
jail or prison settings, "Correctional Advocacy: Critical Social and Patient Advocacy Issues Facing Correctional RNs."
We'll explore many topics, including the state of correctional nursing; privatization of correctional healthcare; imprisonment of older and aging inmates; the links between mental illness, homelessness, and incarceration; and how to build a national single-payer healthcare movement for
excellent care in all settings.
Sign up today! The deadline to preregister is Sept. 15. For more information on the course and how to register, visit the CNA/NNOC website at
www.calnurses.org and check under the "nursing practice" link.
