Get to Know Your Chapter Leadership Team!
The Maryland Chapter of PCNA was established in February 2018, serving the state of Maryland. The current Chapter Leader is Faith Elise Metlock, PhD, RN.
Members and Non-members are invited to two continuing education meetings a year, giving them an opportunity to learn more about updated interventions in the prevention, diagnosis, and management of heart disease. The PCNA Maryland Chapter looks to empower our members in making our communities healthier because nurses are the experts in patient care and must lead in the betterment of our nation’s health.
