GNAO North West Chapter

Officially created May 10, 2010, our chapter serves the Thunder Bay and surrounding area.

We are an active and vibrant group advocating for a high standard of nursing care for older persons. We promote professionalism in gerontological nursing practice through ongoing education and support to our members.

We invite you to attend any of our chapter educational events. You do not need to be a member to attend. If you are interested in finding out about recent and/or upcoming activities please contact us. These educational activities are a great way to meet other professionals like you, who have a strong interest in the older adult.

We welcome new members to our chapter at any time. We also have a chapter executive that meets regularly. If you are interested in joining our chapter, or the executive, please contact either info@gnaontario.org or the chapter president at the above-listed e-mail address, for further information.
