An Eye on Forensic Nursing – S.A.N.E. Certification
With all the new dramas about forensic science on television, we wonder what is forensic nursing? The International Association of Forensic Nurses, Oregon State Board of Nursing, and the Oregon Attorney General's Sexual Assault Task Force all have helpful information on their Web sites. To begin the exploration about forensic nursing and the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner, go to:

The ANA Launches a New Site Dedicated to Nursing
Quality
The American Nurses
Association's National Center for Nursing Quality has launched a new Web
site that contains information on a number of topics which address the
safety and quality of nursing care patients receive and the quality of
nurses' work lives . To visit the new site, go to:

Honoring a Lifetime of Love
Often the connection
between a career in nursing, the education that made that career possible,
and the compassion that makes a nurse what she is, become intertwined
forever. Such was the case when Harold M. Erickson, Sr., M.D., established
the Marjorie Shirley Porter Erickson Pediatric Nursing Scholarship this
summer in memory of his wife of nearly 69 years. More of this couple's
story and details about the scholarship can be found at: http://www.ohsu.edu/son/giving/enotes-erickson.shtml
