2016 Convention Research/Performance Improvement Showcase

Poster SessionAt the ANCA convention 21-24 September 2016 in San Diego, we would like to showcase research and performance improvement (PI) projects from ANCA members; civilian and military nurses working in military medical facilities; and from any Active Component, USAR and NG Army Nurse Corps officer no matter where they work.  Such a showcase was well received at our last convention!

  • From any Active duty nurse corps member in USAR, National Guard or Active component from work done in any location and from any Department of Defense civilian or military nurse working in a Health Readiness Platform.
