Great Basin Chapter of AACN
First chartered in 2009, the Great Basin Chapter is one of over 200 national chapters of the American Association of Critical Care Nurses and was the first chapter in the great state of Nevada. We are located in Northwestern Nevada and serve nursing professionals from hospitals across Reno/Sparks, Carson City, Gardnerville, Truckee, and the Lake Tahoe Region. We foster and advance the profession of critical care nursing while cooperating and collaborating with other healthcare and healthcare related professionals. We support evidence-based practice and AACN's Standards of Care.
