This two-day course is designed to provide critical care
nurses a review of AACN's core curriculum. The course combines central
knowledge-based lectures so that nurses working in the ICU arena will have
a review of AACN's Certification Blueprint. The first day will
provide the critical care provider with an essential review of nursing care and
interventions designed for the ICU setting. The second day of this
lecture series will combine both the critical care and the progressive care
areas. Information essential to each will be presented in a combined
method still complying with AACN's Certification Blueprint. This review
is not an introduction to the environment of the ICU, but a comprehensive
update for the professional already in practice at the bedside and preparing
for the CCRN certification examination.
