Good morning,
Our clinical education team implemented in person annual skills last year. Our division has seven nursing professional development educators that serve approximately 1500 clinical support staff in two states. In person annual skills sessions were scheduled via our LMS and were offered in strategic locations. Several core skills were reviewed in each one-hour session: Blood Pressure, MAR/Barcode Scanning, and injections. Overall, the program was a success. We plan to offer annual skills in the same format in 2025 but include different core skills for review.
Thank you,
Kim Sipos, BSN, RN
