Best People - committed, collaborative, & client-focused

HCEA strives to be the premier organization where health care educators from various disciplines collaborate in the development and use of evidence-based tools for client and staff education, resulting in competent practice and high quality health care for all.

“HCEA was my lifeline when I transitioned my professional focus from bedside clinical care to patient-family education. Members are always willing to provide guidance and share their expertise. The annual conference always provides me with creative new ideas as well as solutions to stubborn problems. It's a membership card that no healthcare educator should be without!”
