UMC (Upper Midwest Chapter) SUNA The Upper Midwest Chapter (UMC) is an official Chapter of the Society of Urologic Nurses and Associa

Formed in 1973, the Upper Midwest Chapter of the Society of Urologic Nurses and Associates was one of the nation's first SUNA chapters. It started with a meeting of four individuals at the Minneapolis Veterans Association, and has grown to a strong organization of over 200 nurses, physician assistants, medical assistants, and urology technicians. Our members come from North and South Dakota, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, and serve the urologic patient in various capacities including: inpatient, surgical, outpatient, laboratory, research, and industry. We invite you to learn more about becoming an Upper Midwest Chapter SUNA member, or visiting us at one of our many educational opportunities! www.umcsuna.org
