The Jan Stewart Memorial Wellness Lecture Series features speakers on wellness-related issues at each AANA Annual Meeting. The series is named after our respected colleague, 1999-2000 AANA President Jan Stewart, CRNA, ARNP. Jan's untimely death at the age of 50 raised awareness of the inherent risks associated with substance misuse among anesthesia professionals. The series was introduced at the 2004 Annual Meeting in Seattle, Jan's hometown, by AANA President Tom McKibban, CRNA, MS and Jan's daughter, Sarah Stewart Gomes.
The Jan Stewart Memorial Fund supports this life-saving legacy of awareness and highlights the vulnerability of all CRNAs and nurse anesthesia students to chemical dependency. To make an online donation - link to the AANA Foundation and specify "Jan Stewart Memorial Fund."
