Florida Nurses Association

Please join us in welcoming Keisa Heard, MS, LPN, as the first-ever Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Director on the Florida Nurses Association Board of Directors!

As FNA expands its commitment to representing the entire nursing profession through LPN membership, Keisa's appointment marks an important milestone in ensuring LPN voices are represented at the leadership table.

With a background in behavioral health and a passion for supporting fellow LPNs, Keisa shared:

"I genuinely care about supporting LPNs... I want to help us feel seen, supported, and connected while making sure our voices are included in decisions that impact nurses and the patients we serve."

We are excited to have Keisa's perspective, experience, and dedication helping guide the future of FNA and nursing in Florida.

Congratulations, Keisa, and welcome to the Board! 💙
