In addition to the many joint social activities with AOSSM colleagues, AANA will host several social events celebrating the work of our many programs and initiatives.
The COVID-19 pandemic has placed restrictions on social gatherings throughout the world. We are staying in constant contact with the city of Nashville and our venues regarding safe gathering opportunities. All social events are planned to take place as noted. The AOSSM-AANA Combined 2021 Annual Meeting will follow all required mandates regarding masks and social distancing.
