IPNA newsletter July 2021
Dear colleagues
The situation in Israel was good for three months, unfortunately since the end of Jun we are again under the COVID 19 pandemic situation again.
For few months we suspend our association work, due to the hard situation in hospitals.
When we started again to work, we had some zoom board meetings, we decided to have a virtual conference. We had a successful conference in February.
During the break time from COVID 19 limitations in Jun we succeed to have three faces to face workshops for our nurses, two of them were for quality of care and risk management, each group included 25 nurses. One of the workshops was for Operating room head nurses, the aim of this workshop was to help OR managers dealing with the COVID 19 impacts on their team members, them self and their families.
We also had two faces to face board meeting.
For now, we decided to have face to face national congress on November 25, 2021, the topic is " The Perioperative Nurses are the heart of the Operating room", we hope that our plan will succeed.
In between we continue to work with the national ministry of nursing, about guidelines for "Nurse's assistants in OR's", the role of the "OR reception room nurses" and the "continuity of care of patients who needs Operations".
We hope that there will be better times soon and we can meet each other soon.
