[captainform id="1277680" lightbox="1" text_content="Evaluate%20this%20Event" bg_color="FF0000" text_color="FFFFFF" position="bottom" type="floating-button"]Feeling the pressure of being asked to do things outside of your job description due to the knowledge you are gaining from being in school? Curious about what to expect as you enter the nursing profession? Just have concerns in general? Then this symposium is for you!  The Eastern Colorado Council Black Nurses Inc. will offer its New Graduate Symposium on Saturday June 15, 2019, from 10:00 am to 2:00pm at the Saint Joseph Hospital’s Sterne Elder Conference Room of the Russell Pavilion.  Colorado State Board of Nursing attorney, Assistant Attorney General Colleen Morey, will be this year’s guest speaker. We are excited to offer this free and public opportunity for new graduates pursuing the nursing profession, whether a newly graduated CNA, LPN, ADN, or BSN, as well as soon to graduate nursing students to gain access to information about legal guidelines and how those guidelines impact their scope of practice. Employee rights within those practice guidelines will also be addressed. Take advantage of this opportunity to obtain information direct from the Attorney General's office and connect with nurses from all levels of the nursing profession. We look forward to seeing you on the 15th! Click link to register. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/new-graduate-synposium-registration-62167362254
