Welcome to the NJSNA Region 4 Microsite

Welcome to the NJSNA Region 4 Microsite. Region 4 is comprised of Mercer, Hunterdon, Somerset, and Middlesex counties, as well as Bucks county PA.  The Region 4 Board has developed and maintained this site to gather information about nursing and showcase the great work the nurses in Region 4 are doing.

We will once again be hosting our annual meeting with an educational program in the fall of 2026.  More information on this exciting event is forthcoming. Additionally, our annual Dr. Barbara Wright Scholarship will once again be awarded. The scholarship application must be completed and submitted by September 1, 2026. Visit https://njsna.org/scholarship/ for more information on how to apply for the scholarship.

We currently have opportunities for nurses that may be interested in being part of NJSNA Region 4 board for 2026-2028. The positions available are:

• Member-at-Large, Somerset
• Director of Education

For information on these positions and how to run for them, please contact Bridget Nkatta, Region 4 Director of Nominations and Elections, at bnkatta@gmail.com or, Donna Penn, Region 4 President at dpenn@hnmcson.org.

NJSNA Region 4 holds monthly virtual meetings and an annual educational event which are open to nurses throughout our region. Virtual meetings occur on the second Thursday of each month at 7 pm. If you are interested in joining a meeting, please email Donna Penn at dpenn@hnmcson.org for the meeting link.

The Region 4 Board is committed to supporting all nurses in our community. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn to stay updated on our latest news.
