Adriano Friganovic came to his first EfCCNa council meeting in 2002, which was held in Paris. At that time, he was only in the beginning of his twenties and the youngest person to serve on EfCCNa council, representing Croatian Nurses Society of Anaesthesia, Reanimation, Intensive Care and Transfusion. He was an ambitious young man and already the president of his association.
He was eager to learn from others, raised critical questions and participated in the ongoing work of the organisation.
On behalf of the EfCCNa family, thank you so much, Adriano for 14 years of dedication to EfCCNa.
Thank you for always being there, for hard work both at meetings and in between them.
For taking the responsibility for the Exchange Programme and serving as a member of the congress committee and in the sponsorship group.
We will certainly miss you at our meetings and the fun we have had over the years.
However, we understand that you are now heading towards a new role which will take up much of your time. We are very happy for you and wish you all the best of luck as the vice-president of the WFCCN. We still hope to see you from time to time and especially in Belfast !
