DALLAS CHAPTER

Orlando Flores, BSN, RN, CCRN, CBRN

My name is Orlando Flores and I have been a member of NAHN since 2018 when I first learned about this organization during nursing school. Previously, I served as Student Ambassador of the Dallas chapter during the Fall of 2019 where I served to connect with student nurses from around the Dallas metroplex and introduce them to NAHN and all the opportunities and resources we have to offer. I have also served in previous leadership positions during my time in nursing school as Vice-President and then President of the Hispanic Student Nursing Association at UTA from 2019-2020 which shares many of the same values and mission of NAHN. I am now looking to continue to serve the Hispanic/Latino community as President-elect of NAHN Dallas Chapter. As President-elect, I will commit to upholding NAHN’s mission and goals by working together with the board and the members of this chapter. My goals for NAHN Dallas include to continue to increase our membership and become one of the bigger chapters of the organization, provide opportunities and scholarships to our members that will help develop their career professionally, and continue to remain an active organization by working directly with the community. I believe that NAHN Dallas has the ability to make a huge impact in the careers of our nurses and the healthcare of the Hispanic communities in the metroplex.

I have 12+ years Nursing experience in Women’s services, Ob/Gyn, Hospice admissions, school nursing, & currently work in Community health. My focus and passion is patient education. 
I will strive to continue to work with my fellow officers and members to promote & carry out NAHN’s mission. 
Goals for the upcoming couple years would include being a part of: increasing membership as well as retaining members, continuing to work with the community (events at least quarterly), & help expand the organization in the DFW area.

Lydia Cabral Secor, DNP, APRN, WHNP-BC

In 1993 I joined NAHN eager to meet other Hispanic nurses and “give back” to the Hispanic community. My first leadership role was as Secretary and then President from 2004 – 2008. When my term as President was complete, I served on the Board of directors.
I have dedicated my career (34 years) working at Parkland Hospital. I am blessed to work with the Hispanic population and am motivated to improve the quality of health care they receive.
I look forward to mentoring future generation of nurses, growing our membership and sharing my experience with our chapter. I am dedicated to the mission of NAHN and if elected to the board will work diligently to promote our chapter.
