Happy 2012 to everyone!
It is my privilege to announce our 2012 POPS
Conference Scholarship winners! Tricia Lane is a member from
Halifax, Nova Scotia, working as an NP for 4 years in a busy
pediatric orthopedic practice that includes management of inpatients
and a busy and varied clinic practice. She is a member of the
Canadian Pediatric Spinal Deformity Study Group and chairs 3
committees in addition to patient care. Jessica Staschak is an NP at
Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia with 5 years experience there.
She sees a wide range of outpatients in peds ortho clinic and has
been building her academic resume in education, lectures to local
NPs, a poster at NAPNAP, while dabbling in research as well.
Congratulations to both of these winners, who will receive
conference registration to POPS, the POSNA half day course, and the
POSNA Scientific meeting!
The Conference Planning Committee has been busy putting together
a top notch meeting, with many great educational and informative
