Pitman, NJ – The Society of Urologic Nurses and Associates (SUNA) will celebrate the unique skills and contributions of urology nurses and associates during Urology Nurses and Associates Week, November 1-7, 2007.

During this special week, facilities and organizations across the country will honor the dedicated work of urology nurses and associates. Patients, employers and colleagues will show their appreciation for urology nurses and associates with activities recognizing their commitment to education and improving quality of life.

Urology nurses and associates care for patients across the lifespan, providing guidance and treatment for a variety of urologic diseases and concerns. They work in all health care settings and specialize in such areas as continence care, male/female sexual dysfunction, infertility, oncology, surgery, cystoscopy and urodynamics.

“Urology nurses and associates are so committed to their patients and work tirelessly to improve quality of life for people with some very sensitive conditions,” said SUNA President Saundra Seidel, APRN-BC, CUCNS, CNOR. “This group deserves recognition for their incredible work, and SUNA is proud to lead this effort.”

Urology Nurses and Associates Week began in 2006 and was a highlight of SUNA’s 2006 Annual Conference in Kansas City, MO. November 1-7 has been set aside each year to give employers, patients and others a chance to thank urology nurses and associates for their work.

In addition to recognizing urology nurses and associates, the week is also meant to encourage other nurses to explore the many career opportunities available in urology nursing.
