Hold January Meeting At the January meeting of Con- cerned Nurses of West Virginia, members recited the purposes ol the organization and discussed plans for the new year. Outgoing president, Debbie Beverage, RN, was presented a gift in apprecia- tion for her work during the past two years and special thanks sub- mitted to other officers. Newly elected president, Twyla Wallace, RN, conducted the business ses- sion. It was decided that regular meetings with speakers will be held quarterly in the months of March, June, September, and December. Executive Committee meetings will continue monthly at 6:30 p.m. at Greenbrier Manor, and will be open to any other members who want to attend. Mrs. Wallace reported that let- ters written to West Virginia's rep- resentatives in Congress, regard- ing federal funds for nursing educa- tion, were aflswered by Sen. Robert Byrd and Rep. Rahall. In response to Sen. Byrd the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services wrote that the Nurse Education Act has appropri- ated $55.5 million to be made avail- able to hospital-based diploma programs for Registered Nurses as well as associate degree and BSN programs in colleges. Members we re also informed that the President of the Joint Commission ori Voca- tional, Technical, and Occdpational Education in W.Va. has been con- tacted regarding the need to keep vocational programs for licensed practical nurses under the author- ity of the state Board of Education instead of moving them to colleges. His answer was m agreement and stated the Commission's purpose is "to maximize the use of resources available for Vocational Education at all levels and provide access to these programs for all West Vir- ginians." The group was reminded that despite the plan of the American Nurses" Assoc. to have seven or eight states requiring a four year (BSN) degree for all registered nurses by 1988, there is only the state of North Dakota with that requirement. At present it has waived the requirement because of the shortage of nurses in that state. A news item also was circulated about programs being opened in Texas, Kentucky, and Florida by Humana, Inc. to train licensed practical nurses. A video tape of panelists debat- ing the pros and cons of the entry- level issue will be shown Jan. 21, at 2 p.m at the home of Joanna Sel- domridge in Fairlea for all inter- ested nurses. The next Exec. Comm. meeting will be Feb. 20th at 6:30 p.m. We wouldlike to extent abelated thank you to the people who helped with the Bean Dinners and the Bake Sale.
