  • “This class gives nurses of all geographic locations in the U.S. the opportunity to enhance their knowledge in med-surg, and apply those skills learned to the general population as well as particular minority populations within their daily contact. ”
  • “I felt this was just a tremendous class and a tremendous experience. The information was well presented by passionate instructors and was extremely practical and pertinent to any med/surg nurse. I have taken many onsite continuing education classes and this was by far one of the best and most useful ones I have ever taken.”
  • “ I loved that this course had different instructors for each area. I had the feeling that I had access to so many different experts in so many different fields - this course was really revitalizing to me. Also, (this is a good thing) this course was not just aimed to passing the exam; I have taken so many practical suggestions back to my workplace. ”

New Pain Management Rules for Healthcare ProfessionalsPain Management Education Requirements
The goal of the new pain management rules passed by the Washington state legislature is to keep patients safe and give practitioners who prescribe opioids the best practices in pain management. A key component of the rules is to encourage practitioners to become better educated in the safe and effective uses of these powerful drugs. The rules contain specific mandatory elements required by the law, as well as guidance for practitioners who care for patients with chronic noncancer pain.
