Vocational Nurses are required by the Board of VN/PT to have 30 units of Continuing Education every 2 years to keep their license active. As part of the Management & Leadership class I introduce the students to NAPNES. The National Association for Practical Nurses Education & Service that provides courses, certifications, continuing education, and education standards. Student nurses can join NAPNES, memberships cost $10.00 /year for students.
I plan to encourage all my VN students to join NAPNES.
