Puget Sound Oncology Nursing Society

Membership Information...

At this time, on-line membership renewal is not available.  We encourage you to mail in a check with a paper copy of the membership application.  Blank applications are available on this site  Please be sure that your contact information is current and correct.

Our membership period is now 12 months from the time of your renewal.  We hope that this will help all of our members to encourage their oncology nursing colleagues to join PSONS year-round.   New member can contact JaRon Snow at Alliance Strategies (206) 283-9292 for assistance/information.

To be a member of the chapter you must also be a member in good standing with the national organization.  Unfortunately, the membership periods differ between ONS and PSONS.  To help you remember when to renew with PSONS, you will receive a PSONS membership card once we receive your renewal and membership fee. We will also notify you when it is time to renew your membership with PSONS. Your membership in ONS runs from the time your dues are received at ONS.

Our Chapter is only as strong as its membership.  Thank you for being a member and for all your support of PSONS. I welcome your feedback on these membership changes.

Attention All PSONS Members!

Your help is needed!  In order to meet your needs, PSONS Membership committee is creating a network of PSONS members who will act as a representative for their unit, agency, workplace.  As Chair of Membership Committee, I feel there are many opportunities for sharing practice questions, research possibilities, etc.  Being a PSONS Membership rep would not take up a great deal of time, much of the communication will be over email or phone or fax if necessary.  Please consider getting involved with keeping our local Chapter alive and well by becoming your institution’s rep and contact Karen Brandstrom..
