ABOUT

The SANC Annual Patient Safety Conference is an esteemed event that has been held annually for 5 years. Each year, we gather to share knowledge, network, and inspire change in the healthcare industry. Our conference is dedicated to enhancing patient safety by addressing critical issues, sharing best practices, and promoting a collaborative approach to healthcare improvement.

This year's theme, "Safer Together: The Intersection of Nurse Well-Being, Healthy Work Environment, and Patient Safety," emphasizes the crucial link between nurse well-being, a supportive work environment, and the overall safety of patients. We believe that the well-being of healthcare professionals is foundational to providing safe, high-quality care.

2024's conference will be led by three of our SANC members:

San Antonio Psychiatric Nurses Association (SAPNA)
San Antonio Chapter of American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (SA AACN)
South Central Texas Society of Gastroenterology Nurses and Associates, Inc. (SCT SGNA)
