Target Audience

RN, CNS, NP


Course Description

This course is designed to provide the progressive care healthcare provider with a review of AACN’s core curriculum, as of November 2023. Provided in a lecture format, the instructor will review anatomy and physiology, physical assessment (including hemodynamics and utilization of invasive assessment tools) and pathophysiology in a systems approach. Topics that are discussed include: cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, renal, endocrine, hematological, gastrointestinal and psychological and legal aspects of care. This review is not an introduction to the environment of the progressive care area, but a comprehensive update for the professional already in practice at the progressive care bedside and preparing for the PCCN Certification Examination. 

Key Learning Outcome

  • After completing the program, 80% of participants will report an increase in knowledge and confidence necessary to pass the certification exam.

Program Objective

This program prepares the learner to:

  • Self-report a gain in knowledge regarding disease states and management strategies as well as an increased confidence in passing the PCCN Examination.
