Mosby’s Essential Nursing CE: Meeting the full range of nursing continuing education needs
 

The demands facing nurses continue to multiply as the care process becomes more integrated and complex. Today's emphasis on evidence-based practices and advanced technologies requires not only new skill sets, but very often, autonomous critical thinking and decision-making at the point of care.

Grounded in Professional Standards
The entire Mosby's Essential Nursing CE curriculum has been developed within the framework of existing regulatory and professional practice standards. This feature — unique in the e-learning industry — means that each and every lesson is mapped to specific Joint Commission accreditation standards as well as professional nursing specialty practice standards.

Mosby's Essential Nursing CE offers a clear focus not only for individual nurses advancing their knowledge and skills, but also for the entire nursing organization when tackling Joint Commission performance improvement requirements or pursuing the path to Magnet Recognition. In fact, the Forces of Magnetism at the heart of the Magnet Program are identified and supported across the full range of Essential Nursing lessons. The course’s lesson alignment with professional standards provides critical guidance for nurse leaders when it comes to addressing both individual and department-wide continuing education needs.

Peer Reviewed and Evidence Based
Mosby's Essential Nursing CE is a broad curriculum of 103 lessons that covers the full spectrum of critical nursing knowledge and skill for safe practice. This self-directed, Internet-based learning program provides 158.6* contact hours and delivers current best practice information on an array of topics, ranging from ethics and legal issues to diseases and conditions and much more.

The lessons have been developed through a rigorous, peer-reviewed process that emphasizes evidence-based
practices, a process that is sustained through continual updates as new information becomes available. And because the courses can be bundled into lesson suites, they allow for focused, in-depth education in specific areas, including pain management, shock, patient safety, end of life, medication safety, and infection control.
