Speaker information form and agreement-INPN

Please see our theme for NP Week 2025. All topics and presentations should align with this theme.

Leading with Expertise, Collaborating with Purpose This theme highlights the dual role of NPs as both clinical leaders and essential collaborators in healthcare. It emphasizes the expert knowledge and advanced skills NPs bring to patient care while also recognizing their ability to work seamlessly within interdisciplinary teams. Whether it's partnering with physicians, mentoring nurses, or advocating for patients, NPs are at the forefront of driving change through teamwork and innovation. This theme reinforces the idea that leadership is not just about individual success but about lifting others and improving the entire healthcare system.
