Chapter History

The St. Louis Chapter of AALNC is proud to be a dynamic Chapter continually growing and strengthening. We are one of the largest Chapters nation-wide of the AALNC. Our steady growth has been the result of hard work and great networking. The St. Louis Chapter hosted the National AALNC Conference in the year 2000, which attracted hundreds of participants! In our tradition of continuing education, we hold monthly educational meetings and organize a Fall Conference annually. These educational opportunities play an important role in the Chapter’s desire to provide a supportive environment and prime networking time for all members.

Our Chapter is proud of our members who hold the Legal Nurse Consultant Certified (LNCC) title. This is a national credential that recognizes experience, knowledge and commitment to the specialty practice of Legal Nurse Consulting. In addition, we have also been represented at the national level through a charter member of the Chapter, Mary Ann Shea JD, BS, RN, who served as the 2003-2004 President of the American Association of Legal Nurse Consultants (AALNC). We were also honored by AALNC as the 2007 Chapter of the Year Award, in recognition for consistent demonstration of career professionalism, commitment to AALNC, and service to the legal nurse consulting profession.
