The Western Pennsylvania Chapter #111 had a week-long celebration for Medical-Surgical Nurses Week.

We began our week with participation in a Kidney Walk on November 3 led by our team captain and chapter's president-elect, Susie Wood.

Our chapter raised over $500.00.

Luke Ravenstahl the mayor of Pittsburgh also issued a proclamation declaring November 1-7, 2013 as Medical-Surgical Nurses Week.

To wrap up the week we had a wonderful chapter dinner meeting on November 6 sponsored by Otsuka Pharmaceuticals and Dr. S. Azouz gave a presentation on "Treatment of Hyponatremia in Heart Failure."
