Introduction
Consider
these questions:
- How
can you continue to develop your knowledge and skills to be an effective
nurse leader?
- Have
you been able to find education programs that are specific to the
roles and responsibilities of nurse leaders in long-term care facilities?
- Are
you interested in seeking increased responsibility as a nurse leader
in a long-term care facility?
-
Is it difficult for you to find the time to attend education programs?
 The
answer to the questions is a series of web-based education programs
that have been developed for nurse leaders in long-term care facilities.
The 6-hour programs can be completed at your convenience via the Internet.
At this time, the online education programs are available for professional
continuing education contact hours. In the near future, they
will be available for academic credit.
The
web-based education programs are designed to address competencies
identified for nurse leaders in long-term care facilities. As part of
a project sponsored by the American Nurses Foundation, a document delineating
the roles, responsibilities and qualifications of nurse administrators
and directors of nursing in long-term care was developed and serves
as the basis for the web-based education programs. The education programs will be pertinent to nurses who are in leadership
positions in long-term care facilities.
