As individuals in the nursing community, we are fundamentally wired to always be listening, always be considering the needs of those around us. We assess, we plan, we implement, and we evaluate. The nursing process is the cornerstone of nursing practice. At AMSN, we work hard – month in and month out – to embody the same process when we interact with our members. The things that matter to each and every one of you, also matter to us.

We are excited to say that we have listened to you and how you would like AMSN to continually communicate, engage and interact with you. We are thrilled to announce an official re-branding of AMSN – with new colors, new logo, brand-new website, blog and more - due to launch in May of this year! Of course, you already have seen that we have recently launched our podcast, “Med-Surg Moments: The AMSN Podcast” that is hosted by nurses, for nurses. You can subscribe to our podcast through iTunes, Spotify, Google Play Music, and Stitcher. You can also visit our podcast site at www.medsurgmoments.org.

You can look forward to a streamlined, user-friendly website for AMSN, where you can find everything from convention information, continuing education, social interaction, and more – quickly and seamlessly. You’ll see a modern look and feel and will have more opportunities to get the most out of your AMSN membership. As ever, we are always listening to you, and what you want out of your AMSN experience.

If you have any thoughts to share on things you’d like to see in the coming year, please let us know. We will continually strive to make AMSN your source for professional development, certification, scholarships, and advocacy.

You can depend on us, just as your patients and colleagues depend on you.
