Dear Nursing Colleague
I am writing to invite you to become a VIP member of a new website I
Aiming to launch on 1 July
It is called ‘Community Nurses Network’ and, under the slogan of
‘Harnessing the knowledge of nurses outside hospital settings’, my aim
is to provide a forum for both learning and mutual support. What I
have said in the introduction to the site is "Nurses who work in
hospitals have easy access to a large number of people who share
experiences, but if you are working in the community that has been
really hard". Clearly, there are hundreds of thousands, if not
millions, of our colleagues in this position, and I want to develop
this site to be of real value to them.
One of the member's benefits will be to read blogs or articles from
experts. (i.e. You!) In return for your input, I am happy to offer you
a lifelong VIP membership, with full access to the site's facilities,
free of charge. This will be a great profile-building opportunity and,
if you have a book or other nursing-related materials to promote, you
If you visit the site now, you will see it is thin and still
very much under construction, but you can sign up for your VIP account
- see instructions below.
In fact, please sign up before July 2- even if you cannot commit to
writing something before that - because we will have to remove the VIP
signup before the public launch. Although, of course would be great if
you could read and get something going on the site before we launch it.
The web address is http://www.communitynursesnetwork.com/
I look forward to meeting up with you on site, perhaps in one of the
chat rooms! Any comments, feedback and suggestions about the site
before the launch can be sent to both me and my colleague who is
administering the site, Steve Hards (email
steve.hards@communitynurses.com or admin@communitynurses.com
