Who Should Take the Course?
Whether you’re responsible for providing direct care, or influencing the care provided to acutely/critically ill neonatal patients, our online review course helps support your certification journey. It is an ideal study resource for nurses considering CCRN Neonatal certification by either pathway option:
- CCRN Direct Care Pathway – For nurses who provide direct care to acutely/critically ill neonatal patients
- CCRN Knowledge Professional Pathway – For nurses who influence the care delivered to acutely/critically ill neonatal patients, but do not primarily or exclusively provide direct care
Please note: The course still references the former CCRN-K credential title, which is now CCRN – Knowledge Professional Pathway. This does not impact the course content, which aligns with the Exam Test Plan for the certifications noted above.
