CCCN presents: ITVA (Implantation transcatheter de valvule aortique) estranges: avez-vous déjà vu cela?

Laura Runcie
Laura Runcie is a registered nurse with a passion for cardiovascular care, nursing as a profession, and continued/specialty education. Although she still considers herself a young nurse, she has squeezed a lot of learning, and experience into the past 9 years. Laura considers active effort in her own professional development key to fueling her zeal for, and satisfaction in CV nursing!
Shortly after beginning her nursing career in 2013, and with encouragement from colleagues, Laura joined CCCN. This decision was instrumental in setting the trajectory of her career. As an active member, she has attended any and all conferences, education days and journal clubs she could. In 2016, alongside a friend, she presented her first abstract at the CCCN Spring conference. That same year, she became a CNA certified cardiovascular nurse. Laura now serves on the CCCN BOD as the Director of Communications and Membership. Beyond her involvement with CCCN, Laura completed her MSN through UBC in 2019.
When not on the quest for (formalized) knowledge, Laura can be found working! Having practiced as a RN in both New Brunswick and British Columbia, her nursing experience (thus far) includes: Cardiac Stepdown and Coronary Care units, in addition to Cardiac Catheterization. More recently she has moved into a Cardiac Surgery Nurse Associate role; but still “moonlights” on her CCU home turf at the New Brunswick Heart Centre.
Of course there is more to her than working and “nerding out” over the heart. Laura has been married longer than she has been a nurse, has 2 amazing little girls and a dog. She loves coffee, exploring the outdoors, and drinking coffee outdoors.
