INPD Spring Meeting
We had a lovely breakfast meeting at the Little America coffee shop. Thanks to everyone who made it. Here are the notes from the meeting:
Fall Conference (Sept? Oct? Location?)
Speaker: Greg Durkin – “How to Enjoy Your Job” Presentation
- Consensus to have Greg come
Conference, Education Ideas:
- Telehealth
- Quality related/evidence based practice (How to drive)
- Have a presentation of educator’s evidence based practice projects
- Paula Julander – Politics
- Legal Ramifications, litigation against nurses, have a nurse lawyer come
- Informal leader as an educator
- Motivating and influencing people
- Send an inquiry out of members who want to be on the conference committee:
- Annette Welch would like to be included
- Susan Peterson – Lone peak as well
- Suzanne Carlisle will make a quilt to raffle off
- Come up with a list of conference objects and a target audience
- Possibly extend an invitation to any Clinical educator, not necessarily nurses
- Have Annette present her ANPD National Conference Presentation – Facilitating Facilitators
Other ideas:
- Have more often at Little America – have people pay their own way
- Bring back a service project
- Send group a directory of INPD members with contact information
- Send a link to the INPD blog
- Add the list serves as a reference on the blog
- There is a concern if we have more ANPD certified Professional Development Specialists, how can they get more CEU’s to maintain certification
- Host ANPD webinars for the group
- Friday mornings still work best for most
We will definitely plan more meetings at Little America. It was fun!
