Letter from the President

Dear UAPRN Conference Attendees,

We are so excited to have you join us for the United Advance Practice Registered Nurses of Georgia (UAPRN) Inaugural state-wide conference. "The Best is Yet to Come" embodies the spirit and life of UAPRN's future. This years conference offerings are only a glimpse of the vision and future direction for our organization. It is most imperative now more than ever that we move forward in the spirit of unity and strength. We have the amazing opportunity to demonstrate our abilities to meet the needs of the individuals, communities and the entire state of Georgia that are depending on our talents. Competency, caring, compassion, and confidence speak to the hallmarks that define our practice. Legislation, health policy, professional development, legal issues, and care across the lifespan, are just a few of the topics germane to APRN practice that are being addressed by our conference. A wide array of topics only serve to speak to all the facets that make up the APRN practice role. We recognize that so much more is needed. So therefore "The Best is Yet to Come". Continue to support our organization along with our partner organizations: Georgia Nurses Association, Coalition of Advanced Practice Registered Nurses of Georgia and Georgia Nurses Leadership Coalition. Unification and the mantra of "One Voice" best encapsulates our commitment to working together to ensure optimal healthcare for all Georgians and beyond. Your presence is appreciated as we look forward to a dynamic conference and UAPRN's future grounded in unity, diligence, and compassion. The UAPRN executive board welcomes you to beautiful Savannah, Georgia.

Michelle A. Nelson, PhD, APRN, MS, FNP-BC State President of UAPRN of Georgia
