| | | "Established in 1969 to help educate nurses working in newly developed intensive care units, the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) is the world's largest specialty nursing organization with more than 65,000 members representing the United States and 45 countries.
The first intensive care units were developed in the 1950s in response to the need for special areas in hospitals that could provide complex care for critically ill patients such as polio victims. As a result of the specialized care provided in these ICUs, patient survival rates improved drastically, generating a call for additional units capable of caring for seriously ill patients with heart disease. Once these cardiac care units were developed in the 1960s, the need for nursing specialists in intensive care increased significantly.

Updates existing regulations to reflect statutory revisions affecting the practice of certified registered nurse practitioners |
| | | "Understanding nature's mute but elegant language of living cells is the quest of modern molecular biology. From an alphabet of only four letters representing the chemical subunits of DNA, emerges a syntax of life processes whose most complex expression is man. The unraveling and use of this ""alphabet"" to form new ""words and phrases"" is a central focus of the field of molecular biology. The staggering volume of molecular data and its cryptic and subtle patterns have led to an absolute requirement for computerized databases and analysis tools. The challenge is in finding new approaches to deal with the volume and complexity of data and in providing researchers with better access to analysis and computing tools to advance understanding of our genetic legacy and its role in health and disease.

The Pennsylvania State Nurses Association began as PSNA, and was developed to meet a very definite need, of supporting the state's nurses. The organization operated for 23 years without any state headquarters. In 1926 when the headquarters were developed, the organization really began to flourish. PSNA recruited many new members, and began the publication of the quarterly bulletin, Penn Points. The association began to work on the ""History of Nursing in Pennsylvania"". Because they had a headquarters, PSNA was able to enlarge their board of directors, and solidify the duties of each committee. All of these things were then put into a handbook for easy access.
