Great Opportunity for Certification
Palm Healthcare Foundation and the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses Palm Beach County Chapter (AACN-PBCC) are partnering to support the following critical-care certifications:|
PCCN: Progressive Care Certified Nurse.
Collectively describes areas known as intermediate care units, direct observation units, step-down units, telemetry units or transitional care units.(Required: 1,750 bedside hours prior to sitting for exam.)
CCRN: Certified Critical-Care Nurse. 
Critical-care nurses who care for acutely and /or critically ill patients. (Required: 1,750 bedside hours prior to sitting for exam.)

Thanks to a grant from Palm Healthcare Foundation and support from AACN-PBCC, you attend the workshop for free and pay a reduced certification exam fee.  In order to participate you must:

1. Be AACN (national) and PBCC (local) nurse member to take advantage of the discounted exam rate.
2.  If you are not a current member of both organizations, your registration fee will include the cost of a one-year membership for both AACN and PBC Chapter . 
3. As you can see, the total cost for you as a new member is below or very close to the cost of the non-member.

Membership benefits include free local monthly dinner meetings with CEUs, and national provides subscriptions to 3 critical-care nursing journals, web access, current research practice alerts and more.

All attendees must sit for a PCCN or CCRN certification exam within 100 days of the review workshop, per the Palm Healthcare Foundation Grant; which significantly reduces members cost.
