Fare well Elin and Colette

FARE WELL and a big THANK YOU to the leaving EfCCNa Board members Elin Steffenak and Colette Ram, who's terms have ended now.
Elin from Norway served as a board member and chair of the Congress organising group for several years. Under her lead the last three EfCCNa Congress 2019, 2022 and 2025 had been successfully performed. She is a real team player and we will miss her a lot. Fortunatly she will be available for a certain time to support the new congress organising team if needed.
Colette started to work with EfCCNa in 2010, first as Dutch representative, then as secretary and finally she became President of the federation. We would like to thank her very much for her great long term commitment to the group, her dedication and her friendly leadership as President. Of course, she will also be missed very much.

Exchange Programme: From Bratislava to Stockholm

From May 12 to 16, I had the opportunity to take part in a short-term exchange stay as a nurse at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm – one of the most advanced medical facilities in Europe. This experience has significantly enriched both my professional and personal life.
