LPN of the Year Award

Congratulations to Elizabeth Santos-Mountel (fourth person on top row) the recipient of the LPN of The Year Award at our 61st Annual Convention. We were blessed with an abundance of new information through the wonderful speakers. Attendees received 15 CEs for class time spent. The accommodations at the beautiful DoubleTree Hotel were tops! The service they provided was outstanding, not to mention the tasty meals served throughout our convention. The only thing missing was more nurses to enjoy this great event. This year, we are planning early for another successful LPNAO Convention to be held next October (20-22) 2011. With keeping family in focus, we have decided to move the usual Halloween week convention to the week prior to Halloween in hopes to increase attendance. We realize many had other obligations and we wish to accommodate as many people as possible. Events this great only happen once a year! So, start planning to help us make next year’s convention one of the biggest in recent years.
