45 years—and yes, we’re going to brag a little! 💃🏽🎉

Last night, MichigANNA celebrated 45 years as a chapter of the American Nephrology Nurses Association—and the professionals who keep nephrology moving across Michigan!

We had laughter, connection, and several raffles—including a FREE ANNA membership! Because we believe in giving you a good time AND a reason to come back. 😉🙌🏽

To our past, present, and future members and leaders: thank you for showing up, sharing your knowledge, and keeping this chapter going. Our nurses deserve a community that celebrates them, supports their growth, and makes their voices heard. ❤️

With board elections ahead, there’s room for fresh ideas and new leaders. Come get involved—we know you have opinions, so bring them where they can make a difference! 😄

Here’s to another 45 years! 🥂

🎉 What an incredible week this has been! 🎉

As the ANNA National Summit here in beautiful Arizona begins to wind down, I am reflecting on our powerful theme: Network, Learn, & Recharge. 🌵✨ I will be returning home tomorrow night, deeply inspired by the brilliant minds, the shared knowledge, and the renewed energy we are bringing back to our chapter.

This also marks the final day of Nephrology Nursing Week, and I want to send a heartfelt message to all of our dedicated professionals: To our incredible Nephrology Nurses—you are the heartbeat of patient care. ❤️ Every day, you balance complex medical expertise with profound empathy, transforming lives in moments that matter most. Your resilience is unmatched, and your dedication does not go unnoticed.

Happy Nephrology Nurses Week from MichigANNA #312!

Nephrology nursing asks a lot of us. We manage complex treatments, changing conditions, medications, access, labs, education, and countless details — but at the center of all of it is a person who is trusting us with their care.

Our patients often know us by name. They know our voices. They notice when we’re there. And we get to know them beyond their diagnosis — their families, their stories, their victories, and sometimes the difficult days.

That connection is one of the things that makes nephrology nursing so special.

From dialysis units to hospitals, clinics, transplant programs, education, research, and everywhere nephrology nurses make a difference — MichigANNA #312 sees you, appreciates you, and celebrates you.

Thank you for the knowledge you bring, the standards you uphold, and the difference you make every day.

To all of our nephrology nurses across Michigan and beyond — this week is yours. 🩺💙

Happy Nephrology Nurses Week!
