Chapter Background

The Central Florida PCNA Chapter is  established  as a platform for nurses in various roles  with interest in serving as leaders  to colleagues, other healthcare professionals and the community, in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases .  Collectively, we work together on events and activities to impart educational information regarding cardiovascular diseases. We aim to encourage engagement in our quest to focus on prevention.  We host free educational events each fall and spring. Registered Nurses and Advanced Practice Registered Nurses will be afforded continuing education hours for their attendance, but all healthcare professionals are welcome to attend.

You do not need to be a member to attend local chapter events and meetings. However, we enthusiastically welcome new members.  Membership to our chapter is open to all healthcare professionals with interest in cardiovascular care and prevention. Please join us at our future events. Also, you may consider being a PCNA member.
