ANA-Only Membership YOU ASKED, WE HAVE RESPONDED! SCNA has been listening to many of the suggestions given to us over the years for creating a path to membership for nurses who live or work in South Carolina to join SCNA at the state level only. This new State ?only membership is now available. Also available is membership in ANA-only for those who would prefer that avenue. These two options are in addition to the usual membership options for Full, called the Gold Standard, membership in SCNA and ANA together. These options have been created to enhance membership opportunities not to replace any of the current categories. State-only membership has the following benefits/restrictions/obligations: Participate in the elections of SCNA in Accordance with SCNA Bylaws Serve SCNA in elected and appointed positions in accordance with SCNA Bylaws Attend any meeting and unrestricted activities of SCNA Utilize such SCNA services as may be available Receive an SCNA membership card Receive the SC NURSE Submit proposals for consideration to SCNA Hold membership in SCNA Chapters in accordance with provisions of the SCNA Bylaws Have the right of due process for the denial of any of the above rights Shall have no rights to belong to or receive benefits from the ANA at the national level Abide by the Bylaws of SCNA Abide by the ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements, 2001.
