Nursing Story Slam
May 8
6 - 9 PM
Nurses have stories. Stories about people, love, pain, suffering, grief, relief, depression, appreciation, regret, health, illness, death, research that changes practice, teaching that changes practice, practice that changes practice, teaching, and research. All of these stories matter but often go untold. UCalgary Nursing is hosting its third annual Nursing Story Slam to share these stories. Nurses are invited to submit a summary or description of a 5-minute story. Ten stories will be selected for the live presentation.
