Critical Care/Progressive Care (CCRN & PCCN) Certification Review Course

The CCRN (Adult) certification is designed for nurses who provide direct care to critically ill adult patients, typically in intensive care units, cardiac care units, or trauma centers.

Meanwhile, the PCCN (Progressive Care Certified Nurse) certification targets nurses who care for acutely ill adults in intermediate or step-down care units, such as telemetry or transitional care units. Both certifications affirm a nurse's advanced clinical judgment and dedication to high standards of practice.

This is a fast paced 2-day review course that combines the CCRN & PCCN content. Nicole Kupchik includes polling questions throughout the sessions and there’s lots of opportunities for nurses to ask questions.

To qualify for either certification, candidates must hold a current, unencumbered RN or APRN license in the United States. Clinical practice hour requirements are flexible, offering two options:

• 2-Year Option: 1,750 hours in direct care of acutely/critically ill adult patients in the past 2 years (with 875 hours in the most recent year)
• 5-Year Option: 2,000 hours over the past 5 years (with 144 hours in the most recent year)

• 2-Year Option: 1,750 hours in direct care of acutely ill adult patients in a progressive care setting (with 875 hours in the most recent year)
• 5-Year Option: 2,000 hours over the past 5 years (with 144 hours in the most recent year)
