Once a Rehab Nurse, Always a Rehab Nurse: Retired ARN Dues Decrease in 2026

Rehabilitation nursing isn't just a profession - it's a lifelong calling. For many nurses, retirement doesn't mark the end of their journey but rather the beginning of a new chapter filled with purpose, mentorship, and connection. Beginning in 2026, ARN is proud to announce that Retired Membership dues will decrease from $99 to $75 - a small gesture of appreciation for the decades of service, leadership, and passion that our retired members have contributed to the field.
