20 Free CMEs/CEUs

February 14, 2010 | Leave a Comment

In my continuing quest to provide better access to free CME/CEUs for FHO readers, I decided to trawl through Medscape tonight and round up 20 offerings that can be completed quickly and easily. A couple caveats, though: 1.) not all of them are for RNs–physician and midlevel only CEs are marked accordingly; 2.) these things [...]

Time once again for a run down of some of the new and noteworthy articles in the current literature (something I almost forgot to do this month!). All of these are from the late January/February/March issues and electronic previews. As always, please keep in mind this in no way a comprehensive list; simply items that [...]

I had an email yesterday about finding CEUs for forensic nurses, which made me think that it’s probably a good time to remind people about the free CEUs available online from IAFN. If you haven’t yet checked them, I encourage you to do so, because, did I mention they’re free (unless you’re not a member, [...]

I love when things like this show up in my in-box (thanks, Kim!). Virginia has released a new document for healthcare providers: Virginia’s Healthcare Response to Sexual Assault Guidelines for the Acute Care of Adult and Post-Pubertal Adolescent Sexual Assault Patients. I am slowly (sloooowly) working my way through this document, but I am heartened to [...]

Time once again for a run down of some of the new and noteworthy articles in the current literature. All of these (but one) are from the December/January issues.

Access is free, but you must register to access the site. You have the choice of listening online, downloading the podcast for later review or downloading transcripts of the session. You [...]

As always, please keep in mind this in no way a comprehensive list; simply items that have caught my attention from a selection of peer-reviewed journals. Links lead [...]

Contemporary Forums has a CE offering for both physicians and nurses on managing complex STD cases. It’s 1.5 CEs for $15, downloadable as either a PDF or MP3 (audio). You can catch a preview here if you’re not sure you want to spend the money.

CROWD has a really terrific powerpoint on gynecological consideration in treating women with physical disabilities. I post it here because it’s a great overview of some of the exam techniques that can be useful (a consideration for those of us completing SAFE exams); challenges in identifying STIs and other GYN issues in this population; and [...]
