Happy NPD Week!
Posted about 3 years ago
Every year in September, nursing professional development (NPD) practitioners around the world celebrate Nursing Professional Development Week. Especially in turbulent times, the education and mentorship our NPD colleagues provide is crucial.
NPD practitioners make a positive impact every day and provide nurses with quality education throughout all stages of their careers and assure that our organizations provide quality, evidence-based practice, and patient safety. NPD practitioners are essential supporters of frontline workers.
Nursing Education Specialists provide programs such as:
- Orientation and Nurse Residency programs
- Competency validation
- Continuing education contact hours
- Education on use of new equipment, policies and procedures
- Coordination of student affiliations
- Clinical Ladder advancement
During this week, our goal is to celebrate the achievements of our colleagues and teach others about the profession.
Happy NPD Week!
