AMSN Premier Partners

CEO’s June Message for the AMSN Blog

In 2019, AMSN knew there was a better opportunity to partner with industry organizations to bring better value to our members. We spent time evaluating the partner benefits we offered, interviewed all our existing sponsor partners, and reimagined a sponsorship package that would help them achieve their goals. But here’s the exciting thing…helping them achieve their goals also helped AMSN achieve our strategic goals.

One of our strategic goals is “The medical-surgical nurse will be a well-equipped, highly respected professional with career satisfaction and a strong professional identity.”

Another AMSN goal is “The global healthcare community will look to AMSN as the thought leader on all aspects of med-surg nursing practice through advocacy, education, certification, and scholarship.”

One of our strategic goals is “The medical-surgical nurse will be a well-equipped, highly respected professional with career satisfaction and a strong professional identity.” An objective around this goal includes building competency and capability by educating nurses, providing them opportunities to demonstrate their medical-surgical expertise and promote nurse well-being.

Another AMSN goal is “The global healthcare community will look to AMSN as the thought leader on all aspects of med-surg nursing practice through advocacy, education, certification, and scholarship.” An objective to achieve this goal is to promote medical-surgical nursing as a specialty and advocate for medical-surgical nurse participation in relevant collaborations and initiatives.

Also relevant for our partnerships is AMSN’s goal to continue to grow and innovate and focus on value for members. These goals are wholly aligned with our revised sponsorship program.

Our Premier Partners, Medtronic, Hillrom, Abbott and Philips, are committed to medical-surgical nurses. They advocate for appropriate staffing and the necessary resources and equipment to allow medical-surgical nurses to grow and excel professionally.

They are completely dedicated to the expertise of medical-surgical nurses and want to bring education, programs, services, and products that improve your ability to excel at work. I have been continuously impressed with their legitimate support of medical-surgical nurses and their interest in hearing directly from members what the challenges impacting your work and your ability to be your professional best at work.

I am so very grateful for every one of our partners, and I hope you are too.

Please take advantage of the resources and education our Premier Partners bring to you as members. They provide outstanding, relevant education free of charge to members, so be sure to visit their pages on the AMSN website and visit their websites for even more information.

Let us know how we can continue to leverage these important partnerships to bring even more value to you, our members. Reach out to me anytime, my email is always open. You can reach me at terri.hinkley@amsn.org
