Welcome to the fourth edition of the MS Nurse PRO e-newsletter, providing you with updates about our programme, the latest news from the MS nursing community, and educational articles. We hope you enjoy reading this newsletter and find it a useful resource!
It feels like yesterday was the launch of our new MS Nurse PRO platform. Today, we would like to hear your opinion about it. Tell us what you think of our new platform by answering this survey.
Please give a warm welcome to Simina Peterfi, our new Community Manager, who joined the team in September 2021. With a background in public health and communications, Simina’s work involves providing on-platform support, creating content as well as bringing our community of MS nurses together. Look out for new and exciting activities!
You will be seeing her interacting with you through the ‘Community’ function of MS Nurse PRO, but you can also reach her with questions or suggestions via email at: [email protected]
After being at the helm of MS Nurse PRO since the very beginning, we are sad to say that Anne Winslow, Chair Person of our Steering Committee for the past 10 years, decided to step down from the role at the end of last year. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Anne for all of her efforts and tireless work in driving MS Nurse PRO forwards to where it is today. We are happy to announce that the reins have been taken up by Dominika Czarnota. Dominika is the Secretary-General of the Polish Multiple Sclerosis Society and also a member of the EMSP Executive Committee.
Vicki Matthews, Chair of our Syllabus Committee, has also decided to step down from the role to enjoy her retirement – but we are pleased to say that we will not lose her completely and that she will remain with us as an honorary member of the committee. We are delighted that Piet Eelen has agreed to join us as the Chair of the Syllabus Committee. Piet is a Clinical Nurse Specialist in MS and President of the Belgian Association of MS Nurses and brings with him a wealth of experience, knowledge, and new ideas.
