On June 1st, the Northeast New York Professional Nurses Organization (NNYPNO) gathered at The Century House in Latham, NY for their Annual Meeting and Awards Ceremony. The event is not only exciting for the student nurse scholarship and professional nurse recipients, but also for the announcement of new officers and board members of NNYPNO. After a short board meeting, the group honored the now-past board members and chairpersons of the organization.
