Nursing education has never been more important.
Support your nursing staff with risk management and patient safety video-based courses.
With staffing shortages, a reliance on traveling nurses, and moral injury and compassion fatigue, keeping the team on the same page where risk and patient safety priorities are concerned can be a challenge.
That’s why we developed a series of short and engaging video based courses that highlight a risk management, patient safety, or quality issue that is directly impacted by nursing care, and allows you the opportunity to:
- Choose the topics most relevant to your team
- Distribute education about best practices for care that is measured by nursing-sensitive quality metrics
- Provide staff with a printable tip sheet for each course containing key takeaways that can be applied immediately in the field
