AACN Message on Coronavirus (COVID-19)

All of AACN’s upcoming events are proceeding as scheduled. AACN makes informed decisions about our meetings based on information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and local health authorities. Should any restrictions be put in place that may impact any of our upcoming events, AACN will notify the membership immediately. 

As always, ensuring the health, safety, and security of our members is a top priority. AACN will help provide nursing school deans, faculty, students, and other stakeholders with information and resources to make informed decisions. For a good starting place, visit AACN’s new resource center, which highlights key information sources about the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19).  

Details

The Essentials Task Force will share key elements of the Essentials, which are used to shape the development of undergraduate and graduate nursing programs, including domains, domain descriptors, competencies, and sub-competencies. Attendees will be able to review and provide input on the materials presented, which will shape future iterations of the Essentials as the re-envisioning process moves forward. We encourage deans, faculty, and students from member schools to attend the regional meetings along with their practice partners. In addition, national nursing organization representatives are welcome to attend.

Important Note: This regional meeting will focus on the Essentials related to Entry into Professional Nursing Practice. Two additional regional meetings will be announced in the spring and will focus on Advanced Professional Nursing Practice.

Participation is limited to the first 200 registrants.
