IMPORTANT: NOTE FOR NURSES

ALL posters representing Cone Health (work done at Cone Health and or by Cone Health nurses):

  1. Must use a Cone Health-approved template.
  2. Be reviewed and approved by the Poster Review Committee.

For an explanation of why this review process is required along with ways to ensure your poster meets the required standards see one of the following Constructing Posters to Meet Cone Health Nursing Excellence Standards tutorials.

Clarifications:

  • Posters presented at the Nursing Symposium sponsored by Cone Health are still subject to these requirements.
  • Posters presented on a Cone Health campus, (e.g. internal Research Day or Magnet Showcase), are exempt from the requirements.
    • However, if there is a chance the poster will subsequently be presented at another non-Cone campus event, then the approved template should be considered to prevent having to redo the poster.   

PLAN AHEAD  The review process could take up to 14 days and you will need time to get it printed prior to the event.
