About Ultrasound Training:
Limited OB Ultrasound training requires both Didactic study and Clinical competency demonstration: RNNCEs offers you the most affordable options to complete both.
Previously we had Didactic opportunities as live in person Seminars (this is now restricted due to Covid-19, and there are not yet any scheduled in 2022).
Presently we are promoting the online options for the Didactic and Clinical requirements, so that this essential training can continue and in a safe and affordable manner.
We recommend that you personally assess your didactic and clinical ultrasound background education and experience, as well as the descriptions of the modules on our site before purchase from our Ultrasound Training Menu. If you need assistance navigating your personal learning plan email info@rnnces.com for a complimentary assessment and guidance.
The easiest step which matches the most frequently requested training, is to purchase the Basic Ultrasound Webinar Complete Bundle. This works well for those doing Antepartum testing and L&D Triage. It contains the 5 hour webinar series, the online simulation module that focuses on AF evaluation and BPP testing, fits the request for second and third trimester limited OB ultrasound, and includes a post test to demonstrate and document mastery.
You may design your own program by ordering the components individually as well.
Didactic opportunities include a prerecorded 5 hour webinar series, which was recently updated to include a live recorded demo, or HomeStudy Unit option (links below). Additionally, RNNCEs lists the amazing and affordable Ultrasound Training Modules available to practice clinical competency and further establish your didactic mastery. ANOTHER NEW ADDITON TO THE PROGRAM, you may now take a post-test so that you can demonstrate didactic mastery. The test includes grading and personal counseling if indicated or requested. The Clinical component is practiced with online simulation modules that are listed below.
