ANCC Accreditation Feedback Line
1-866-262-9730
The Accreditation Program of the American Nurses Credentialing Center is
interested in the opinions and perspectives of the participants in
accredited continuing nursing education activities, particularly
those perspectives related to the presence of perceived bias in the
continuing education. For this reason, we are now providing a toll
free number. Participants may access this number at any time to:
-
tell us of any noted bias or conflict of interest in the
education
-
tell us of any concerns, compliments, or opinions
-
tell us of a great experience
-
tell us of an unpleasant experience
-
tell us your thoughts on the process
Just call and tell us! 1-866-262-9730
*Bias is defined as: preferential influence that causes a
distortion of opinion or of facts. Commercial bias may occur when an
educational activity promotes one or more product(s) (drugs, devices,
services, software, hardware, etc.) This definition is not all
inclusive and participants may use their own interpretation in deciding if a
presentation is biased.
NOTE: Statements of commercial support and/or conflict of interest
disclosures do not represent bias. Such statements inform the learner
that the provider has implemented a mechanism to identify and resolve all
conflicts of interest prior to delivery of the educational material.

Acute
Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is one of the most challenging
disorders that a respiratory therapist faces in the critical care setting.
The mortality rate remains at approximately 50 percent. Caring for a
patient with ARDS requires critical thinking and strong decision making
skills. A respiratory care practitioner must have a firm grasp on
identifying and treating this disorder. The goal of this lesson is to
provide respiratory therapists information about ARDS utilizing a patient
case scenario approach. This course is designed for respiratory care
practitioners.

Alzheimer's
Disease affects an estimated 4 million Americans. It is the 5th
leading cause of total disability in the US and the 4th leading cause of
death. Fourteen million Americans will have AD by the middle of this
century unless a cure or prevention is found. The cognitive impairment
and memory loss that occur with AD generally render the afflicted person
incapable of caring for himself or herself competently and thus in need of
supportive care. This care is provided by family caregivers and by
members of the healthcare team. This day-long course is designed for
RNs, LPNs, and other healthcare providers or anyone else who cares for
patients with Alzheimer's Disease. Through the use of films, lecture,
discussion, handouts, and other audiovisual techniques, the participant will
become more familiar with the theories behind AD, the disease progression,
how to manage the many behavioral problems that accompany the disease, and
the needs of family caregivers.

There have
been many new medications for hypertension marketed recently. What are
they? How do they work? What about the old cardiac medications,
are they still useful? With so many Americans with hypertension, a
primary risk for coronary artery disease, it is important to know about
these medications. This course will review the various drugs, their
interactions and indications for use. The part that RNs and LPNs play
in patient education today will be enhanced by the knowledge obtained from
this course on hypertensive and cardiac drugs. Participants should
review anatomy and physiology of the heart and cardiac terminology prior to
attending this class. This course is designed for RNs and LPNs.
