YANKTON, S.D. (AP) — Some 200 nursing students from across the state are expected to attend the 2016 South Dakota State Nursing Association Convention on Friday and Saturday at Mount Marty College.
The "Nursing: Putting the Pieces Together" conference will include panel discussions, a statewide meeting, awards and officer nominations and elections.
Speakers include an experienced ICU nurse and clinical nurse educator, a U.S. Army nurse and a person sharing stories about mental illness, suicide and co-occurring disorders.
A physician assistant will speak about his firsthand experience working in Liberia, Africa, during the 2014 Ebola outbreak and a Mount Marty alumnus will discuss home-based care in homebound elderly and frail patients.
