Hello fellow nursing students! I would like to start this entry by introducing myself. My name is Kelcie Grace Collins and I am your 2012-2013 President of the Oregon Student Nurses' Association! I am transferring from Lane Community College's Oregon Consortium for Nursing Education, and I am so excited to join the junior class at Oregon Health and Science University this Spring term to finish my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I am no stranger to the SNA. Last year, three classmates and I helped to establish LCC’s very first Student Nurses’Association chapter. At the 2011 OSNA convention I was elected to serve as the OSNA Membership Director. Over the last year I have had the privilege to work with some of the most dedicated student nurses I know! I am so excited about this year's 2012-2013 OSNA Board of Directors (BOD) and I look forward to seeing each of our goals unfold into something amazing.
Now that you know a little about me, I would like to share some of my goals for my term in office. This year my goals are themed around the word "family." I would really like to create a sense of family among the OSNA BOD, and a sense of family within our organization throughout the state. As nursing students we have so much to offer each other and to our communities. By aiding schools to establish community outreach projects in their own area, as well as OSNA events that members from all schools can attend, our board can establish a feeling of community between our schools. I know that if we work together we can make a difference in our own communities, in our state and hey who knows maybe even nationally!
Remember, I am always available for questions, comments, ideas or concerns at oregonsnapresident@gmail.com. School Chapter Presidents are welcome to share their thoughts in the comment section on this blog. I look forward to working with you all! Good luck on finals. Study hard!
