This year OAAPN recognized four individuals for their inspiring commitment to the APRN profession, their patients, community, and better access to care for all Ohioans.
This year we present the Award of Excellence to Mark Yoder, DNP. APRN-CNP!
Mark actively champions Advanced Practice Nursing by mentoring students and colleagues pursuing advanced education as well as advocating for APRNs to be acknowledged for their value in our healthcare system including fair pay, workload, and opportunities. In his recent role he fosters a supportive work environment, improved NP retention, and enhanced clinical services to better serve the community. Mark’s dedication and effective leadership exemplify his significant contribution to advancing the field of Advanced Practice Nursing.
The OAAPN Award of Excellence is presented to an Advanced Practice Provider who exemplifies the mission of our organization through professional development, clinical skill, innovative practice, academic excellence, political action, and finally, interdisciplinary interaction. Congratulations Mark!
