Tentative Topics Planned

LeAnn Thieman, LPN, CSP, CPAE, co-author of the New York Times best seller Chicken Soup for the Nurse’s Soul will be the Keynote Speaker on Thursday, November 7th.

Ms. Thieman is a nationally acclaimed professional speaker, author, and nurse who was “accidentally” caught up in the Vietnam Orphan Airlift in 1975. Her book, This Must be my Brother details her daring adventure of helping to rescue 300 babies as Saigon was falling to the Communists. An ordinary person, she struggled through extraordinary circumstances and found the courage to succeed.

After her story was featured in Chicken Soup for the Mother’s Soul, Ms. Thieman became one of Chicken Soup’s most prolific writers. Her devotion to thirty years of

nursing made her the ideal co-author of Chicken Soup for the Nurse’s Soul. She went on to coauthor Chicken Soup for the Christian Women’s Soul, Chicken Soup for the Caregiver’s soul,

Chicken Soup for the Grandma’s Soul, Chicken Soup for the Father and Daughter Soul, Chicken Soup for the Mother and Son’s Soul, Chicken Soup for the Christian Soul 2, Chicken Soup for the

Adopted Soul, and now Chicken Soup for the Nurse’s Soul, Second Dose.

She has been featured on CNN, Fox-TV, BBC, PBS, Newsweek Magazine - “Voices of the Century” issue, and PAX TV’s - “It’s a Miracle” show. Negotiations are currently underway to produce her story as a Hollywood feature film! Ms. Thieman will be available during the day for book signing.

Novem

ber 7-9, 2019

Excerpts from evaluations of past conferences...

“Best medical conference I have attended, exceeded my expectations!”“The content was interesting and significantly enhanced by the quality of the speakers. Thank you for the best FAPTP meeting thus far!”

“Well organized and managed; great perks, food, exhibits, location.”

“Affordable, easy to get to, good speakers, friendly staff, current topics.”“It remains, hands down, the best educational opportunity for pediatric Hem/Onc nurses. Thank you for that!”

“I really enjoy this conference. You had wonderful speakers that spoke on current, relevant pediatric hem/onc topics. As an APRN, I also appreciate that the material is not “dumbed-down” as many nursing conferences can be. I learned a lot and also appreciate the review of some important material. Lastly, the price including meals is also wonderful. It makes coming with my family an option which is very important to me. Thank you for a great few days!”

“Topics discussed were pertinent to my practice. Some of the speakers provided material and suggestions to take back to home-based clinic.”

“Thank you for planning an awesome conference. I have enjoyed every one I have been to and learned so much to help me with my practice as an oncology nurse.”
