ITNS recognizes that the role of the transplant nurse is unique. Dealing with the patients through the transplant continuum is often complex and challenging. ITNS is committed to the promotion of clinical excellence in transplant nursing and would like to annually recognize a transplant clinician who encompasses and inspires that mission.

Continue to watch for the 2005 deadline announcement to provide your cover sheet and one-page narrative supporting your nomination for the Transplant Nursing Excellence Award.
