  • 5Th NATIONAL NURSING ETHICS CONFERENCE
    NNEC 5th NATIONAL NURSING ETHICS CONFERENCE 25th Anniversary Reimagining Nursing from the Inside Out An Invitation to Reflect, Celebrate, Re-Imagine, and Transform March 7-9, 2018 UCLA Luskin Conference Center Los Angeles, CA www.ethicsofcaring.org 1 Welcome & Description Welcome to Los Angeles! Welcome to the 5th NNEC As we gather in Los Angeles for the 5th National Nursing Ethics Conference, we will also be celebrating Ethics of Caring’s® 25th anniversary and its many years of providing nursing ethics education. Your experience the next few days will stand on that foundation – a belief that clinical work requires developing an expertise in recognizing and responding to the moral questions that arise in healthcare. We are privileged to be able to do this together in com- munity, to collectively learn from each other and creatively develop practical approaches to the ethical challenges we face. The theme this year, “Reimagining Nursing from the Inside Out” speaks to the ethical practices of reflection and as- sessment, going within ourselves and our profession to understand our strengths and our needs. Then we can find ways to integrate our core values and innovatively evolve a personal and collective future for nursing that will stretch us to transform our practices, moral spaces, and work environments. We look forward to our time together with you. May the conference be restorative for each of you, so that you return to your practice with the gift of resiliency. Warm regards, Katherine Brown-Saltzman, MA, RN Heather Fitzgerald, MS, RN Co-director, UCLA Health Ethics Center Clinical Nurse Ethicist President, Ethics of Caring© Children’s Hospital Colorado Co-Chair, NNEC 2017 Planning Committee Co-Chair, NNEC 2017 Planning Committee Conference Description Reimagining Nursing from the Inside Out is the theme for the 5th Ethics of Caring® National Nursing Ethics Conference (NNEC).
