Yesterday, 140+ nurses from 29 of Arizona's legislative districts (out of 30!) attended RN Advocacy Day at the Arizona capitol in Phoenix.

During this event, nurses had the chance to speak to their legislators about bills that affect the nursing profession in order to advance the nursing profession, take tours of the Senate and House buildings and sit in on committee and floor sessions.

We are so proud of all the nurses in attendance! Thank you for showing up and using your voice for the benefit of your profession and your colleagues.

Meet Jean Cherry, BSN, MBA! 🎉

Jean is new to Arizona and has been a member of AzNA for a year! She's been a nurse for 30 years with experience spanning hospital, research, insurance and retail nursing. Fun fact - she took care of the first heart transplant at a North Carolina hospital!

She currently works as a consultant and a nurse writer. Her first book, "Outside the Box Nursing" was just published in November.

Jean became a nurse to help people manage their health issues and get to their highest capabilities. She says, "It has been a joy to have such amazing opportunities to grow and learn throughout my nursing career." She went back to school and graduated with her MBA at age 50!

When asked about her favorite part of being an AzNA member, she cited collaboration with other nurses and the ability to promote the nursing profession.

Welcome to Arizona, Jean! And thank you for being a member, we appreciate you! ❤️

Alex Pretti, a registered nurse, was killed in a horrifying shooting at the hands of federal law enforcement. Alex’s life mattered, and the American Nurses Association (ANA) denounces his killing and the circumstances surrounding it.

We ask all nurses to visit https://ow.ly/sGMn50Y3L57 to send a letter to your members of Congress. Let them know that nurses demand immediate action.
