The mission of the Quality and Unity in Nursing (QUIN) Council is to promote quality and unity for nurses and nursing in Florida. QUIN Council objectives are:
- Develop a strategy to communicate between the organizations key issues that affect nursing.
- Develop communication networks that foster collaboration.
- Develop support/unity for nursing in Florida.
- Develop mutual agreement on key nursing issues.
- Provide a forum for discussing major positions where there may be dissent – “agree to disagree.”
- Move the agenda for nursing forward.
- Be action and outcome oriented, not a study group.
QUIN Council membership includes state level organizations led by nurses that have a mission and purpose consistent with the QUIN Council mission and objectives. Organizations may seek participant status by approaching a current organization.
