The PCNA Community

As a member of PCNA, I have the opportunity to connect with many outstanding professionals in cardiovascular care. The ability to stay updated with the latest preventive, management, and treatment strategies for heart health has been an invaluable resource.

Abigail M-P.
DNP, NHDP-BC, ARNP, AACC, RN

This organization provides invaluable and current information on cardiac issues. It is a welcome tool to improve patient care for anyone caring for cardiac patients. I wish I had learned of it earlier in my career!

Susan Jean W.
RN

I love the variety of classes to choose from. I did the cardiovascular certificate, and it was a great “refresher” class!
