Will Any Medscape Activities Meet the Requirements for Advanced Practice Nurses Who Must Have a Specific Number of Continuing Education Hours With Pharmacology Content Designated?
Recognizing the increasing requirement by state BONs that nurses, particularly advanced practice nurses, earn a portion of their continuing education in the area of pharmacology, Medscape began in December 2005 to note this information in the accreditation statements of activities posted on our site for which Medscape is the continuing education provider. Activities that are provided by other continuing education organizations may not note this information. For information about a particular activity, simply click on the bar labeled “Accreditation Statements” in the right sidebar of the activity’s first page. For example, please refer to: http://www.medscape.com/viewprogram/4914.
