- The Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association is honoring nurses with a Memorial Photo Tribute. Learn more.
To help celebrate the 2010 International Year of the Nurse (2010 IYNurse), HPNA has a very unique opportunity for its members to commemorate the invaluable contributions of their nursing colleagues who have died. The National Office will collect their names and photos to launch the HPNA Photo Memorial Tribute to Nursing Colleagues.
We invite you to send a photo and brief description of the colleague you wish to memorialize. This special person can be a nursing mentor, past nursing co-worker, national nursing leader, or a nurse in your life who has passed away.
