Have you heard?

Have you heard the latest news?

  • Nominations for the Spring 2012 SJDC SNA Board were taken at the meeting on November 14th.  We are still  in need of a volunteer to be our Community Service Chair.  This person coordinates our SNA's participation and support of various community service activities here locally.  Interested? Come to the December 5th meeting (last one for the semester) or contact me, Diane Villanueva, President-Elect at dvillanueva454@students.deltacollege.edu and I'll help you get some information.
  • Did you receive the email regarding the Nursing Success Center has purchased the Nursing Central app for us? Great news! Remember, you need to go to the Nursing Computer Lab first to register with Nursing Central.  Then you will be able to access the program and download it to your mobile device for your use.  If you have any problems, registering or installing the program, Phil LaDuke is the California Sales Rep that is willing to help you.  His contact information:
          Phil LaDuke
         (800) 230-2423 ext 222

          Be sure to take advantage what the Nursing Success Center has purchased for us!! And if you
          happy, be sure to email and say "Thank you."
  • Share the SJDC SNA blog site with your classmates.  We are hoping for this to become one means of communication within the different semesters.
  • Remember, you do not need to be a member of SNA in order to attend the meetings.  All nursing students are welcome.  You do need to be a member in order to vote, though.  Membership provides many benefits.  See previous postings for the link to the website to check it out.
Hoping to see more of you at the next meeting, Monday, December 5,2011.
