Save the Date for our 2024 Annual PSONS Symposium!
Saturday, September 21st
Located at the Greater Tacoma Convention Center

Welcome to the PSONS Vendor Communication Page!

 

PSONS would like to thank our industry partners. Your dedication and support to the Puget Sound Oncology Nursing Society (PSONS) is very much appreciated.

The PSONS appreciates your interest in our chapter activities. Your support helps us provide ongoing chapter education in alliance with our mission and goals as well as those of the national Oncology Nursing Society.

Your contact for the vendor support is Lynley Fow. She is an oncology nurse & practitioner who currently works in the pharmaceutical industry. Thus, she is a great fit for this vendor liaison role.

If you have any questions please email her at psonsvendors@gmail.com. She checks the email account once a week, usually on the weekend. Please do not email her on any of her personal accounts, such as Hotmail, which she does not check regularly.

Vendor Contact List/Access and Usage:

  • The vendor contact list is kept updated by the vendor support committee members who are designated by the PSONS Board. When a committee member no longer holds the position, it is agreed that they will no longer have access to or use the information contained on the list.
  • Contact information on the list is routinely used for the following: Distribution of the Annual Future Events and Funding Opportunities Letter, Annual Symposium and the OCN Review Course.
  • All other bulk e-mails and US postal mailings using the vendor list will require the permission of the board and go out via the PSONS g-mail account.
  • If the PSONS board choses to partner with or assist other organizations (PSPRN, PSINS, etc.) they agree not to provide the list to the organization only send out the announcement via the PSONS website. These decisions will be documented in the board minutes.

Exhibit Display Request for PSONS Events:
When scheduling exhibit tables for PSONS events the following process and criteria will be used

Table Displays General:
1) A Funding Opportunities Letter will go out to all active accounts on the vendor master list by the PSONS vendors e-mail in order to allow our sponsors to save dates and plan funding.
2) Profit or paying sponsors will be given first priority when space is limited in order to help support the chapter goals of remaining financially responsible and staying cost neutral for educational events.
3) No partial display table fees will be accepted for smaller companies or private entities

Annual Symposium and the OCN Review Course
