Abstract

Membership in a professional nursing organization allow nurses to interact with one another and can promote a higher level of excellence in patient care. This is especially important during a time when nurses are faced with many challenges from patients, families, and healthcare organizations. The rehabilitation nurses in South Dakota realized the importance of membership in the Association of Rehabilitation Nurses (ARN), however, did not have a local chapter due to the large distances separating the rehabilitation facilities. They organized a chapter uniting nurses hundreds of miles from one another using teleconference technology. Using technology may be a way to organize local chapters and provide nurses with ongoing support and learning opportunities.
