The Wisconsin Director of Nursing Council (WDONC) hosts weekly support calls every Wednesday at 7 a.m. to provide nursing leaders with a forum for addressing the ever-changing challenges facing long-term care.
These calls offer an opportunity for participants to discuss best practices, ask questions, share resources, and learn from peers across the state. Meetings are held via Zoom and can be accessed either online or by phone.
Those interested in participating can subscribe by completing the registration form or by contacting Melissa Montgomery to receive weekly Tuesday email notifications and meeting agendas.
