Introducing the new Idaho Nurses Association Web Site

The INA Web site was launched in July 2008 as a new resource for our members.  We encourage and welcome your feedback as we continue to expand the site - we want this to be your Web site and one that is a valuable resource for you.  Please send your comments, suggestions and content submissions to Lynne Weil at ed@idahonurses.org.
