GOSH 2025 March 3-6, 2025 Update: Nurses Step Up to Speak

OSAOHN was again invited to lead the development of the Occupational Health (OH) tract and the Health Care (HC) Industry tract for GOSH 2025.

The OSAOHN Team included Past President Jean Drevdahl Orchard, Wendy Boughton, President Elect, and Board member Kate Wood.

This year, the team partnered with OHSU’s Natlie Dutro and Andrea Dayot. Andrea is also Regional Director for the Association of Occupational Health Professionals (AOHP.)

This team developed topics and recruited speakers for the tracts. The result is a very robust HC tract that addresses many of the pressing needs of that industry. The OH tract compliments the many industrial hygiene, workplace safety and Total Worker Health presentations of interest to Occupational Health Nurses.

Most exciting is the number of OSAOHN members taking the podium. They include our President Lisa Rodriguez, President Elect Wendy Boughton and Board member Chad Porch. Joining them will be members Joel Michels, Gretchen Irwin, and Lynda Enos.

Other nurses will also be presenting. They include Annie Duncan and Krisa Gigon.

OSAOHN is proud to take a leadership role in bringing nurses to the forefront at this iconic Workplace Safety and Occupational Health conference. Offering topics from the many specialties that contribute to the health and safety of workers in wide range of industries, nurses' voices will be heard.
