"Tidal Momentum: Elevating Practice, Transforming Systems"

Momentum That Moves Health Care

Momentum is more than motion.  It’s sustained, collective energy that drives growth and meaningful change. Tidal Momentum reflects the growing impact of Nurse Practitioners in advancing clinical practice, expanding their scope of practice, and delivering high-quality, patient-centred care across New Brunswick.
 
This conference brings together clinical excellence, innovation, knowledge sharing, and professional development to strengthen NP practice and support the evolution of care. When NPs come together to share their expertise, experiences, and clinical knowledge, we create an environment where practice continues to grow, evolve, and move forward.

"Élan vers l'avenir : Élever la pratique, Transformer les systèmes"

L'élan qui fait avancer les soins de santé

L'élan est plus que le simple mouvement.  C’est une énergie collective et soutenue qui favorise la croissance et engendre des changements significatifs.  Élan vers l'avenir reflète l’impact grandissant des infirmières praticiennes dans l’avancement de la pratique clinique, l’élargissement de leur champ d’exercice et la prestation de soins de grande qualité, centrés sur les besoins des patients, partout au Nouveau-Brunswick.

Cette conférence réunit l’excellence clinique, l’innovation, le partage des connaissances et le développement professionnel afin de renforcer la pratique des infirmières praticiennes et de soutenir l’évolution des soins.   Lorsque les infirmières praticiennes se réunissent pour partager leur expertise, leurs expériences et leurs connaissances cliniques, nous créons un environnement propice à la croissance, à l’évolution et à l’avancement continu de la pratique.

Speakers

At Horizon’s The Moncton Hospital, Dr. Halpine assesses and treats stroke patients in their recovery journey. Her goal, as a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation specialist, is to help patients return to the highest level of function and independence possible and to improve their overall quality of life – physically, cognitively, emotionally and socially.

Dr. Halpine is an associate professor with Dalhousie University, Department of Medicine; division of physical medicine and rehabilitation.

Dr. Halpine works alongside a multidisciplinary team that includes nurses, psychologists, social workers, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, physiotherapists and others. Together, they treat inpatients – with the goal of enabling safe discharge home with any necessary equipment and supports— and outpatients, who can safely live at home while recovering from their stroke.
