Nearly 100 nurses gathered recently for a daylong continuing education program co-sponsored by the MGH Nurses Alumnae Association and the MGH Institute of Health Professions Alumnae/i Association. The program focused on a variety of clinical and professional development topics, such as cervical cancer screenings, antibiotic usage updates, caring for skin cancer patients and tips for keeping nursing practice "energized."
