Amy LaValla, a senior BSN nursing student was chosen as a recipient of the American Psychiatric Nursing Association Scholarship, which provided an all expense paid trip to the 2011 APNA Conference at Disney Land Resort in California in October 2011. She was one of 15 students chosen nationwide for this honor.
The scholarship recipients were chosen on the basis of academic merit, student activity and leadership qualifications, as well as professional goals in the area of psychiatric nursing. Amy reports the experience was an incredible opportunity to learn from nursing leaders who are “shaping the direction of the nursing profession for the future.”
