CTNIG AWARD

RNAO-CTNIG "Award of Excellence"

PURPOSE:
In 2012, Kim M Watson, then President of the CTNIG, established the CTNIG Award to celebrate out 10th year Anniversary and the work that has been done. The award was created to recognize the work nurses do to introduce, recognize and integrate complementary therapies into healthcare within Ontario. 

No one embodied this award more than Darka Neill, not only was she the spark that created this group, she was our first President. It was due to Darka's dedication and commitment to the vision and mission of this group, that it came into being, as well as her efforts brought the group forward to celebrate its 10th Anniversary.

The first award was presented to her on November 10, 2012. This award will now be presented every 2 years at the AGM (Annual General Meeting) to honour and recognize the efforts and work of a Registered Nurse or NP in Ontario who continues to work towards the vision and mission of the CTNIG and the use of complementary therapies in healthcare.
