In keeping with the effort to return to business as usual following the devastating attacks of September 11, the New York State Nurses Association is proceeding with plans to hold its 100th annual convention in New York City on November 1-4. The National Practitioner Databank has updated its guidebook, to reflect current issues and concerns. The spirit that we have seen across the nation has been nothing less than astounding. The willingness of Americans to take care of their families, their friends, their neighbors, communities and ultimately their nation is overwhelming. It is something that you see and feel everywhere you go.

The nurses in New York City and the state continue to be so appreciative of the RN volunteers helping in the burn units, homeless shelters, and relief centers. They also appreciate the food that has been delivered to the emergency rooms as gifts of appreciation. The National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, National Coalition for Adult Immunization spearheads this annual observance to coordinate awareness-raising activities that focus on adult and adolescent immunization. The 2001 manuals are now available for purchase.
