FONE is the 2010 Recipient of the AONE Chapter Leadership Award!
On behalf of the FONE Board of Directors and the Research Committee, I am very proud to announce that FONE is the recipient of the 2010 American Organization of Nurse Executives Chapter Leadership Award. This award recognizes an AONE Chapter and its members who have demonstrated “best of the best” in leadership practice, and whose work sets an example for every nurse leader.
AONE’s press release states,
“The Florida Organization of Nurse Executives’ achievement to be recognized lies within the work of its research committee, which originated in 2002. The FONE Research Committee has moved FONE into unprecedented achievements in bringing research and practice advancement to its members, and has led the way in innovation, creativity and responsiveness to the needs of the FONE membership. With the support of FONE members, the research committee completed a major research project on staffing. This study was then shared nationally at the AONE 41st Annual Meeting held in 2008, as well as at the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s National Annual Magnet Conference and the Sigma Theta Tau International Conference.”
What an awesome achievement! Our Chapter will be recognized at the 2010 AONE Annual Meeting, April 9-13, in Indianapolis. I hope that many of us will be in attendance for this special event.
Thanks to Past President Claudia Distrito for her challenge to us to apply for this award, and a very special thanks to the Research Committee for their commitment and for giving all FONE members the gift of this major accomplishment.
I am so proud of them and grateful for their work! Please join me in recognizing Dr. Diane Brady Schwartz, Chairperson of the FONE Research Committee, along with the 2009 Research Committee members who included Diane Andrews PhD, RN, Carolyn Brown PhD, RN, Patricia Dittman, PhD, RN, CDE, Lindell Joseph, PhD, RN Walter Lupke, RN, MBA, Jennifer Nooney PhD, Debra Morgan RN, MS, Jackie Munro RN, MS, ARNP, Virginia Pesata, MSN, ARNP, DPNAP, Jennifer Nooney PhD, Leslie Rogers, MBA, RN , RN, Rose Rivers, PhD, RN, Lee Schmidt, PhD, RN and Franklin Shaffer, EdD, RN, FAAN.
