GAPNA Exchange- a new online community for members to connect, communicate and collaborate!
What is it? GAPNA Exchange is a private, secure community for members to share ideas, ask questions, lend expertise, and network with peers. The community features both an Open Forum discussion area along with smaller, segmented communities. Now, you can interact with GAPNA members wherever and whenever you need to.
How can I participate?
- Log in and update your bio and profile picture!
- Make a post in our Open Forum!
Here's a quick overview of some of the new features in GAPNA Exchange:
- Enhanced discussion capabilities - Receive emails that are more structured and easier to read than our traditional listserv. All discussions are archived and searchable!
- Member Directory search - Find members quickly and easily.
- Total privacy controls - You have complete control over what information you share with members of the community and your contacts.
- Subscription management - You are able to manage your subscriptions to all discussions.
What we're excited about: The GAPNA Open Forum (part of GAPNA Exchange) is a discussion group that is not specific to specialty but designed to help you connect with all of your peers. We hope that through the use of the Open Forum you'll feel a sense of belonging. We want this online community to foster camaraderie and support; we want you to connect, share, and communicate with colleagues who understand what it's like to be caring for our aging population.
All members receive the GAPNA Open Forum Daily digest in their email inbox each morning (if there has been active discussion the day before). We hope you love hearing what your gerontological peers (almost 2,500 of them) are saying and that you participate in the conversation. However, if you want to opt out* of the Open Forum daily digest, you can certainly do so.
*If you want to opt-out of our Open Forum digest, you can certainly do so (but we hope you don't). Just log in to GAPNA Exchange, head to your profile. Then, click on My Account, Community Notifications and select "No Email" next to Open Forum.
