Quad Council: Public Health Nursing Professional Issues
Statement of Purpose and Institute Overview:
In the 2007 Learning Institute, the Quad Council of Public Health Nursing Organizations (Quad Council) will provide its annual overview of the state of public health nursing. The purpose of this session is to reaffirm baccalaureate education as the foundation for public health nursing practice. An overview of the session will be provided by the Chair of the Quad Council. A presentation by the lead author of the concept paper: Baccalaureate Education: Foundation for Public Health Nursing Practice will focus on the state of baccalaureate education within public health nursing. A panel of Quad Council Organization leaders will provide perspective, implications, and priorities for action for PHN education, practice, research, and policy. Participants will be invited to comment on the document and the panel's perspectives, as well as to raise issues and questions for the Quad Council to consider over the course of the next year as the document is released and disseminated.
