A Republican, she is also a retired registered nurse.[1]

McElfatrick was first elected to the House in 2010. She served on the Agriculture and Rural Development Policy and Finance, the Health and Human Services Finance, the Health and Human Services Reform, and the State Government Finance committees.[2]

McElfatrick graduated from Methodist-Kahler School of Nursing in Rochester, Minnesota, and also attended graduate school for nurse anesthesia at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester.
