Pediatri Hemşireliği 1. PNAE Kongresi

Dear colleagues, The Paediatric Nursing Associations of Europe (PNAE) in collaboration with the Turkish Pediatric Nurses’ Association (TPNA) are delighted to invite all Paediatric Nurses to the 1st PNAE Congress on Paediatric Nursing, which will be held on 1-2 December 2011, in Istanbul. We intend to join forces in order to promote and ensure quality paediatric nursing care, keeping in mind the need for specialized care by health professionals, with both high level of theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The Scientific Programme of the Congress will include a large number of educational and scientific events, along with abstracts from distinguished paediatric nurses who will share with us their research findings, empirical knowledge and experiences regarding the care of children, young people and their families. We owe particular thanks to Professor Andreas Konstantopoulos, President of European Paediatric Association (EPA/UNEPSA), for supporting the nursing community and ensuring the conduct of this nursing Congress. We anticipate the attendance of Paediatric Nurses from across Europe, as the 1st PNAE Congress on Paediatric Nursing will be a good occasion to enrich knowledge and experience about the latest developments in the care of children, young people and their families. Istanbul is a lively city with a rich and vibrant culture and history. The conference facilities are first class and will provide you with access to the latest technology.
