Course Description

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 pre-paring for the certification examination.
For attendees preparing to take the CCRN Exam:
This review course content follows AACN’s updated 2020 CCRN Exam blueprint. Professional Caring and Ethical Practice (20% of exam) issues are addressed when appropriate throughout.
