The Jill Nolte OzarkVAN Scholarship

The Jill Nolte OzarkVAN Scholarship was created in 2022 to honor the legacy of our friend and colleague, Jill Nolte. Jill founded OzarkVAN in Missouri and the network is now closing without her leadership. Jill was committed to improving the education of healthcare professionals. She was a fierce advocate for patients and believed they all deserved an excellent vascular access experience. Jill embodied AVA’s mission and vision statements- She wanted to protect patients, improve lives, and provide all patients, worldwide, with safe vascular access. Throughout her nursing career, regardless of nursing unit type or the country she was in, Jill dedicated her time to educating peers, patients, and the community about safe vascular access care. GulfVAN is honored to establish this scholarship in her name.
