More than 300,000 nurse practitioners are licensed to provide care in the United States, with a majority certified in primary care, according to the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. And most see at least three patients per hour — so their nurse practitioner CEU requirements should be fast, easy, and convenient.
That’s where continuing education course bundles come in.
Boards of nursing require a variety of courses, all determined on a state-by-state basis, making tracking down the individual courses a potential challenge to completing your CEUs on time. When required courses are compiled in one location, nurses can easily complete all of their contact hours in a shorter amount of time.Â
Streamlines the Nurse Practitioner CEU ProcessÂ
Nurse practitioner CEU bundles take the stress off of the nurse. Your job is hard enough. You shouldn’t have to dig through pages and pages of courses to find the ones that meet your state’s requirements. Packaging them together, like Nursing CE Central does, saves time and, simply put, is more convenient.
Nurse Practitioner CEU Bundles Include RN Requirements
Part of maintaining your NP license and certification is keeping up your RN licensure. The bundle approach combines RN requirements and any state-specific nurse practitioner CEU needs.
Combines Pharmacology and Non-Pharmacology Courses
Depending on the state, and whether or not controlled substance administration is part of your responsibilities, nurse practitioners must complete a certain number of hours of pharmacology and non-pharmacology courses. The bundle method includes both types of courses.
Nursing CE Central’s state-specific bundles include pre-selected and vetted nurse practitioner CEU courses that meet the required contact hours.
Keep Up With Best Practices
With best practices changing at a rapid pace alongside technological and medicinal advances, completing a nurse practitioner CEU bundle is an easy way to ensure that you are using the best methods in your practice.
New courses are published at Nursing CE Central on a near-daily basis, so practitioners have the most up-to-date information and evidenced-based practices at their fingertips.Â
Offer a Variety of Topics
Nurse practitioner CEU bundles feature wide-ranging topics that give learners a wealth of knowledge that might extend beyond their traditional scope. In addition to putting tools in the nurse practitioner’s proverbial toolbelt, bundles present an opportunity to learn new and specialized content.Â
Cost-Effective & Simple Renewal
Rather than piece-mealing your requirements (possibly across multiple CE providers) and paying per lesson, the nurse practitioner CEU bundles can help you save money. And with Nursing CE Central, for example, you’ll receive one certificate for all courses that the company keeps on file.
The Bottom Line
Nurse practitioners typically see at least three patients per hour, sometimes serving as their primary care provider. With such a busy schedule, tracking down individual nurse practitioner CEU courses can be time consuming and, frankly, a bit of a burden. Opting to complete a nurse practitioner CEU bundle is a convenient, cost-effective, and streamlined way to ensure your license is up to date so you can continue to provide the best quality of care to your patients.Â
