Working towards optimal health for all older adults
Our members are more likely to achieve leadership roles because of the strong collaborative relationships that they build through access to over 300 gerontological nursing leaders, and because of the potential for rapid development of their programs through access to cutting-edge best practices, leadership, and research in faculty and curriculum development.
Overseen by the Mentor Network Committee, this program provides information, guidance and support to those who are in the early stages of their careers.
Mentor program is now taking applications for mentors and mentees!
The NHCGNE Innovation Award is designed to recognize and celebrate innovative programs and projects that highlight excellence in Gerontological Nursing. The Award will be granted to a member or team of NHCGNE members to showcase innovations designed and implemented that positively impact the nursing care of older adults. Nominations for the NHCGNE Innovation Award are submitted by self-nomination. Nominees must be a gerontological nurse from a member institution.
