RN Refresher
This RN Nursing Refresher course is designed for inactive registered nurses returning to active practice and covers current professional nursing practice as related to the clinical areas of medical-surgical, maternal-child, mental health, and community nursing care. The intention of this course is to enable nurses to reintroduce and develop their knowledge bases, nursing skills, and confidence in practice by reviewing current technology, equipment, nursing trends and practices, and legalities.
- Individuals must be eligible for a temporary nursing license through the Texas Board of Nursing or hold a current Texas RN license.
- Students will complete 80 hours of online training, two (2) days of skills training, and 80 hours of clinicals at a local facility.
Please note that placement into the clinical course requires a drug screening and criminal background check. In addition, the clinical sites may require certain vaccines. Continuing education courses may be updated at any time. Select the button below to see if a course is currently available.
