GAPNA recognizes that nurses often carry the weight of the world, both in their professional roles and beyond. The strength of our profession lies in our shared commitment to compassion, empathy, and care for one another.
As nurses, we bring humanity, steadiness, and courage into every space we enter. We encourage our members to extend that same care inward and toward one another, leaning on our professional community for support, understanding, and resilience.
Consistent with our mission to promote excellence in advanced practice nursing and advocate quality care for vulnerable populations, GAPNA mourns the loss of a fellow nurse and calls for a careful, transparent review of the circumstances surrounding his death. We are committed to supporting our members, advancing safe practice environments, and advocating for policies that protect both patients and those who care for them, without regard to politics or party.
Together, GAPNA remains committed to fostering safe, respectful, and compassionate environments for all.
