ANA: ANA President on Ballot for 100 Most Influential People in Health Care

Posted By Wendy Knefelkamp, Tuesday, June 5, 2018
For the fourth consecutive year, ANA President Pamela F. Cipriano, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN is a nominee on the ballot for Modern Healthcare's "100 Most Influential People in Healthcare" ranking. This list honors health care professionals who are deemed by their peers and an expert panel to be the most influential individuals in health care. You can vote here for the nominees you believe should make the final list of the "100 Most Influential."

We encourage you to vote for nurse leader nominees. Recognizing nurse leaders is an excellent way to elevate the profession and recognize the important contributions nurses are making. Voting closes Tuesday, June 12. The final ranking of the "100 Most Influential" will be published on August 20. Please spread the word by encouraging your colleagues, family, and friends to vote as well.

AzNA PAC Announces Endorsement of Three RNs Running for Arizona Legislature

Posted By Wendy Knefelkamp, Tuesday, June 5, 2018

On Monday, June 4, the AzNA Political Action Committee announced the endorsement of three nurses running for seats in the 2018 Arizona Elections. These nurses won't make it on the general election ballot without getting past the primaries in August - there are currently NO NURSES in the legislature.

 

Decisions on healthcare and the medical professions are made by legislators who seek opinions from current doctors and dentists serving in the legislature. Do you want the voice of nurses to be heard? VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES! 

 

There are 90,123 Registered Nurses in Arizona. Can you imagine what we can do if every nurse VOTES FOR A NURSE in the next election?

 

What if every nurse who does not have a nurse on her ballot joined the AzNA PAC for $25.00? A whole lot of yard signs could be bought for endorsed nurses!  Hit the DONATE button below.

 

Want to know who your candidates are? Visit AzNA PAC's 'Get Out The Vote' website to locate your polling place, register to vote or sign up for mail in ballots, and see who your candidates are. 

 

If you want a full picture of all the races this year, go to the Secretary of State’s election site where every candidate is spotlighted. Notice that there are three tabs – the last one is for the races for all 60 Legislators and all 30 Senators.

 

Let’s do this!  >>View The Endorsed Nurse Candidates Here<<
