Conference Overview
Nurses have always been in roles that require flexibility and adaptability. Donna Wright, consultant with Creative Health Care
Management, LLC, (CHCM) often states in her lectures that what nurses do is manage change. She points out that in whatever
department or role nurses work, at the core of what they do is to assist patients in managing the stress of transitioning from
one state to the next. That has never been truer than in our current world of health care. More than ever, our patients and
clients need assistance navigating the transition into a new era of health care. It is the same transition for us as their
caregivers, so it is incumbent upon us, as holistic healthcare practitioners, to prepare ourselves to manage and mitigate the
effects of the transition. The OHNA 6th Annual Conference is designed to provide tools for the attendee toward that end.

background in dance and a passion for complementary
medicine. Jess’s vision is to empower the health of her
community. She views illness as the body’s way of getting
our attention so that we might start to make positive
lifestyle modifications. Jess believes that dis-ease can be
reversed by learning to listen to the body, increasing selfawareness, releasing old emotions, adopting healthy
practices and increasing the number of tools individuals
have in their “healing toolbox.” She is passionate about
sharing her holistic perspective with her community and
offers classes, workshops, holistic wellness guidance, and
her dance class, Attunement Movement.

humor, leaving you feeling better prepared to meet your patient’s needs.
