What’s New in the Nurse Practitioner Association of Greater Rochester?

November/December 2015

 

Thanks!!!

The NPAGR board would like to thank all of the participants who attended the Regional conference on November 14 at St. John Fisher College. Over 75 participants enjoyed presentations by Dr. Stephen Ferrara, FNP, BC, Executive Director of the NPA (update on the Nurse Practitioner Modernization Act) and Dr. Michael Mendoza, Medical Director at Highland Family Medicine (Primary Care needs in the future and the role of the NP)

Did you take advantage of the first ever Black Friday membership discount? It was announced at the Regional Conference and emails were sent out from the NPA and posted to our website. Current members could renew and have it apply to next year’s membership. If so, good for you! If not, there will be membership events coming up in 2016!

Looking forward to December:
