AANLCP 2016 Conference Chair

Hello from AANLCP



Hello!

I am a new Board member, a new Nurse Life Care Planner AND I am excited to be a part of the AANLCP organization.   Take a few moments to go through the updated website; you will be amazed at the resources that are available at your fingertips. 

Want to grow your professional network and can’t wait until our conference in February 2016?  Please join a work group!  Are you an educator? Or just curious about a topic and want to help the group learn more? Are you new and want to learn how to weave your nursing expertise into your new specialty of life care planning? Are you in an advanced education/practice course and want to share your research papers/projects with others?  Are you a “collector” of vendors, contact names and products that just might be useful someday?  We need you to join the conversation by participating in a committee! 

Don’t know where your talent might fit?  Ask us!  Or join a group and listen in. 

Come join the conversation!
