A roundup of the latest news and events from the British Association of Cosmetic Nurses
BACN EXCELLENCE
2020 has been a difficult year for everybody, but throughout December, the BACN will be championing its nurse members and looking back to highlight the successes. The BACN will be using the hashtag #BACNExcellence via all social media channels to shine a light on some hidden heroes. Members are encouraged to take part!
COMPLICATIONS SURVEY
The BACN recently sent a survey out to all members focused on their characteristics. This has really helped when looking at the services on offer for 2021. Full results can be found in the December BACN newsletter. BACN members will be aware that there is a huge issue around complications management, particularly with regard to procedures carried out by non-medically trained practitioners. The BACN is also aware that for many new aesthetic nurse practitioners, managing complications is challenging. In order to refocus the support the association provides regarding complications, members are encouraged to take part in the new survey to gain more insight. The results will provide data to input into a number of major developments linked to regulation and the many media enquiries the BACN receives on this subject. All responses will be treated confidentially and no individual response will be identified and used. All members should have received the survey through the BACN communication channels. For more information contact Gareth Lewis at [email protected].
BACN AGM
Every year, the BACN holds an Annual General Meeting that members are encouraged to participate in. All BACN members have been provided notice of this meeting by email – BACN Accounts and information relative to the meeting can be found in the BACN Member’s Area. The AGM will be held at a physical location in London on January 11th, but members will be asked to participate digitally via Zoom. If members have yet to receive the information, they are asked to contact Sarah Greenan at [email protected].
