The following letter to the editors was submitted to Delaware newspapers.
Due to the ongoing efforts to mitigate risks associated with COVID-19, The Delaware Association of Nurse Anesthetists is canceling the Spring Conference scheduled for May 2.
In an effort to show our appreciation and raise morale of our military men and women deployed overseas, the Delaware Association of Nurse Anesthetists are organizing a collection of items and letters of appreciation to place in individual care packages addressed to our service members. The care packages will be sent to the10th Mountain Division Forward Resuscitative Surgical Team & 455th Expeditionary Medical Group. One of our CRNAs, David Krasuki, who trained and worked in Delaware is currently deployed and will be accepting our donations on behalf of the group. There are over 300 soldiers in the Med Group and over 1000 at the base! Let's make every effort to send a package to as many of our dedicated service men and women as we can.
