Our Vision and Mission

The Rum River Chapter is dedicated to supporting a healthcare system driven by the needs of patients and families where acute and critical care nurses make their optimal contribution.

The Rum River Chapter of AACN provides and inspires leadership to establish work and care environments that are respectful and healing. The key to Rum River Chapter’s success is through its members. Therefore, Rum River Chapter is committed to providing the highest quality resources to maximize nurses’ contribution to improving the healthcare of acutely and critically ill patients and their families. As a community based association, the Rum River Chapter is committed to involvement in improving the health of the community through community service projects and education. The Rum River Chapter strives to empower students to increase their knowledge of the critical care-nursing environment.
