NNA Committees
Overview
NNA committees are under the leadership of volunteer members and accomplish much of the work of NNA. Click on the committee names below to learn more about them and their activities.
INITIATIVES
The Nevada Nurses Association is committed to promoting professional nursing and high quality patient care. One way we do this is by identifying specific problems or needs, then starting nursing initiatives to help find solutions. We currently have three active initiatives:
- Healthy Nurse, Healthy Nation
- Safe Staffing
- Nevada Collaborative on Incivility & Bullying in the Healthcare Workplace
GET INVOLVED!
If the focus of one or more of these committees appeals to you, please consider joining! Do you have a nursing practice concern or issue that you would like NNA to consider? Contact us at ExecutiveDirector@NVNurses.org or call us at 775-747-2333.
