Henry Low Heart Center Cardiovascular Nursing Symposium

This year celebrates the 12th year of our symposium. The event has continued to grow every year and we have seen participation from many other area hospitals and nursing schools. As always, this event is organized for nurses by nurses with the Cardiovascular Education Committee putting in months of planning to make the symposium a great success. This day-long event features topics that update nurses and other healthcare providers on the latest cardiovascular technology and research. We thank you for your support of this premier cardiovascular nursing event and look forward to sharing this experience with you in years to come!
