HEALTHCARE: PALLIATIVE CARE | ADELPHI UNIVERSITY - COLLEGE OF PROFESSIONAL AND CONTINUING STUDIES

Offers a certificate program that will prepare you to provide high-quality, evidence-based palliative care to individuals across the adult lifespan and in all settings, as part of an interdisciplinary team. The program is offered exclusively to registered nurses (RNs and APRNs). Participants will earn 42 Continuing Education Units through Adelphi University’s College of Nursing and Public Health, an approved provider of continuing nursing education by the Northeast Multistate Division, an accredited approver by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation. This program is especially valuable to registered nurses (RNs) and advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) seeking the knowledge and skills to provide medical care and emotional support that manages symptoms, relieves pain and discomfort and improves quality of life for patients with life-threatening or terminal illnesses. The program consists of a series of two-week, online workshops, led by experts in this field. Each workshop will require approximately six hours of work per week, which must be completed during the week of the workshop. You and your instructors and classmates will interact asynchronously — so there are no required class meetings on specific days and times. Call for detailed information.
