9th EfCCNa Congress postponed to August 2022
Dear Critical Care Nursing Colleagues
when the 9th EfCCNa Congress was postponed to March 2022, we had hoped that the Covid-19 pandemic would have eased by now.
Unfortunately the Covid-19 virus continues to firmly holds us in our grip, putting an immense pressure on frontline nurses.
It remains highly uncertain that the situation will have improved considerably in March, and many of you may not be able to travel to Utrecht to attend the Congress at that time.
