Community critical care course: blueprint for success.
For 10 years, a group of 19 California hospitals has supported a community-based critical care educational program for entry-level critical care nurses. Program management is rotated every two years. Two courses are offered quarterly: a 32-hour ECG course and a 96-hour Critical Care Nursing course. The community-based approach is very well received because it provides broad-based critical care educational programs in a very cost-effective manner.
