Kathy Ruccione Founders Award for Excellence in Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Nursing
In 1995, the SCAPHON Board of Directors established and presented the Founder's Award for Excellence in Pediatric Oncology Nursing to Kathy Ruccione, the driving force behind the establishment of our local chapter. Each subsequent year, the SCAPHON Board presents the Kathy Ruccione Award for Excellence in Pediatric Oncology Nursing to a member of our local chapter who exemplifies excellence in pediatric oncology nursing. In 2007, with the change from SCAPON to SCAPHON, we are excited to open up the application process to include nurses specializing in Hematology. The award includes a certificate. Free registration to the SCAPHON Regional Conference and a $500 honorarium.
We need our members to nominate candidates to be considered for this award.
