PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- Elsevier, a global leader in research publishing and
information analytics, is working with the State of California Emergency Medical Services
(EMS) Authority to provide COVID-19 online training to nurses
in the state. The two-day online curriculum by Elsevier, created in
collaboration with the American Association of Critical Care Nurses
(AACN), is designed to help registered nurses enhance their
clinical reasoning skills and knowledge by utilizing the latest
evidence-based practices and data on the novel coronavirus.
Registered nurses in California
can learn more about this continuing education training option and
how to register by visiting the EMS Authority's website.
John Danaher, MD, President,
Clinical Solutions, Elsevier, said: "We are honored to work with
the State of California Emergency
Medical Services Authority and AACN to deliver this important
COVID-19 online training for nurses. Every day, we are working to
support our healthcare workers in addressing this public health
crisis by providing the clinical tools and trusted information they
need to care for patients."
In the Fall of 2020, Elsevier launched its COVID-19 Healthcare
Hub, which provides free access to toolkits, expert insights,
research resources and COVID-19 guidelines. The Hub's resources
include evidence-based clinical overviews, drug monographs, care
plans, order sets, and procedure videos for clinicians delivering
care and information to patients. Clinicians will also find the
latest information and guidelines from government health agencies,
medical societies and public health organizations for diagnosis,
testing and treatment of COVID-19 patients.
