NCANS MIDYEAR Convention 2024
At the first annual NCANS Midyear Convention, you will learn how to prepare for the transition to practice from nursing while networking with fellow students and nurses. This event will cover various topics such as mental health as a new grad nurse, implementing evidence-based practice in daily clinical experience, and the importance of leadership involvement as a nursing student. Additionally, we are offering the opportunity to participate in an immersive legal simulation at Catawba Valley Community College’s Valley Sim Hospital. Join us to become a professional nursing student and be prepared for the transition to practice!
