Critical Care Registered Nurse (CCRN)/Progressive Care Certified Nurse (PCCN) Exam Review is organized by Med-Ed, Inc and will be held from Dec 11 - 13, 2018 at Radisson Hotel Branson, Branson, Missouri, United States of America. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 21.5 Contact Hours. Course Description: This three-day course is designed to provide critical care and progressive care nurses a review of AACN’s core curriculum. The course combines central knowledge-based lectures so that nurses working in the PCU and ICU arenas 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. The third day will be specifically for the progressive care provider and complete AACN’s blueprint for system review. This review is not an introduction to the environment of the ICU or PCU, but a comprehensive update for the professional already in practice at the bedside and preparing for either or both of the certification examinations. Program Learning Outcomes: This program prepares the learner to: • Discuss and practice test-taking skills. • Review critical anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of each system. • Discuss significant assessment and diagnostic findings relevant to the critical and/or progressive care environment. • Discuss clinical presentation as well as specific patient management of commonly seen critical care conditions. Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
