By Mary James, R.N., B.S.N., Magnet Program Coordinator
It's been an honor to blog as Magnet Mary, but now is the time to make our focus wider, and to do so, we'd like to rename this blog, "Magnetizing NorthBay."
Not only will I still be writing from the Magnet Coordinator perspective, but I'll be welcoming other writers on the Magnet Steering Committee to participate.
It's the perfect collaboration, which is really what the ANCC's Magnet Program is all about.
I will continue to be Magnet Mary, especially when I interact with other Magnet hospitals through social media, including the Magnet Mary Facebook page. (Want to visit, just click here.)
I'm excited about "Magnetizing NorthBay" because we'll be able to share the perspectives of Magnet Program Director Chris Stevenson, our Vice president and Chief Nursing Officer Kathy Richerson, Nursing Operations Officer Rhonda Martin and Perioperative Services Director Susan Gornall, as well as Becky Lessler, Human Resources services manager for learning and leadership.
It will also be an opportunity to give our Magnet Champions a blogging voice.
Watch for a change in the photo and presentation of this blog coming soon.
