WCO-ONS ANNOUNCEMENTS


Darla Subler

Miami Valley Hospital's first Champions of Hope event will be honoring three remarkable people and their achievements in the fight against cancer. One of them will be one of our own colleagues, WCO-ONS member and treasurer, Darla Subler, RN, OCN who will be receiving the Medical Professional Award on November 5, 2009.  Below are a few of the things that Darla’s co-workers had to say about her.

‘Darla is an outstanding clinician and a calm and compassionate nurse. Having been an inpatient oncology nurse at MVH for the past 32 years, she has always gone above and beyond for staff members, students she has mentored, and patients and their families. She is able to balance her sense of humor with her skill and patient care.’

"She is calm, she is compassionate and you'd want her to be your nurse, or family member's nurse."                                   Elena Mikaluskas and Nancy Thoma, Nominators &WCO-ONS Members

ONS has collaborated with the US-Middle East Partnership for Breast Cancer Awareness and Research (www.bcpartnership.org) in developing a breast cancer training of trainers program, which ONS  developed from the current ONS Site-Specific Breast Cancer Online Course, for nurses in the Middle East.  ONS found several members with experience in the care and teaching of patients with breast cancer to serve as faculty for presenting this training program to three groups of Middle Eastern trainers.  The faculty will travel to Morocco, Jordan, and the West Bank to present the training program.”   

 

WCO-ONS congratulates and wishes Bon Voyage to colleague Susie Newton RN, MS, AOCN, AOCNS who was selected  as a faculty member to teach nurses in the Middle East. Susie and her husband will be leaving for the adventure on October 30, 2009.

The individual will be sponsored by the Greater Dayton Ostomy society and will have an opportunity to go to a camp in Colorado where they will be able to spend time with other ostimates their own age. Anyone who may be interested in donating to the worthy cause without participating in the raffle can contact any board member regarding the arrangements.
