The Maryland Chesapeake Chapter NAPNAP will be hosting a Spring Dinner Meeting with an educational presentation tentatively scheduled for the evening of May 4, 2023. The aim of the meeting is to encourage networking among our members as well as provide an engaging presentation on a pediatric disorder.
We would like to present posters from our members (students or practicing nurse practitioners) showcasing your endeavors. The posters may present your initiated or completed pediatric health care-related nursing project(s) or provide innovative practice models and topics with a future-oriented perspective. Two submissions will be chosen as “Exemplar Posters” but all authors will be asked to provide a brief overview of the project during the meeting.
We are looking for presentations with strong clinical applicability, evidence-based practice implications, innovative role development or practice models. Students are encouraged to submit!
