NYSNA Advertising Policy

The NYSNA Board of Directors has adopted the following policy in regards to advertising in its publications and on its Web site:

  1. Acceptance of advertising does not mean endorsement by NYSNA of the product or service advertised, the advertisers, or the claims made. Similarly, rejection does not necessarily imply that a product or service offered for advertising is without merit or that the advertiser lacks integrity.

  2. The New York State Nurses Association reserves the right to reject any advertisement at the discretion of the editors.

  3. Advertisers may quote the results of scientific experiments or properly controlled studies that have been made by nurses and other health professionals and have been published in nursing or other publications. Advertisers may use the name of the author of the article provided the source of the article is included in the advertisement. A signed testimonial endorsing the specific product is not acceptable.

  4. The editors may require data to substantiate any advertising claims made. Advertisements that make false, misleading, or extravagant claims will not be accepted.

  5. Advertising of products or services that compete directly with those provided or sponsored by NYSNA will not be accepted.

  6. An advertising fee must be paid by all advertisers according to a schedule established by the Executive Director.
