ARNM Connects with Manitoba's Nursing Community at MGNA Fall Conference

ARNM at the MGNA 2026 Fall Conference

ARNM was pleased to attend the Manitoba Gerontological Nursing Association (MGNA) Fall Conference, Turning a New Leaf on Gerontology, on November 9 at The Leaf in Winnipeg.

The conference brought together nurses, educators, leaders and other health professionals from across Manitoba for a day of learning, conversation and connection, with a focus on advancing knowledge and practice in gerontological nursing.

This year's keynote address was delivered by Manitoba Seniors Advocate Leigh Anne Caron. The program explored topics including ageism, creating age-friendly environments, environmental sustainability, HIV and aging, and supporting staff mental health in long-term care.

ARNM appreciated the opportunity to connect with attendees, share information about the association and hear from members of Manitoba's nursing community. Events like these provide valuable opportunities to build relationships, exchange perspectives and recognize the important contributions nurses make across all areas of practice.

Congratulations to the MGNA team on another successful conference, and thank you for bringing the nursing community together for a day of learning and connection.
