App combines continuing education, credential management, career development, and community all in one place
MORRISVILLE, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Nurse.com, a community where more than 3.5 million nurses connect, earn continuing education (CE), and discover job opportunities, today announced the launch of its mobile app, a new platform available on iOS and Android that allows busy nurses to manage their professional life on the go.
Understaffed with heavy patient loads, nurses are challenged with finding time for the professional upkeep their careers depend on. The Nurse.com app makes it easier to stay current by bringing necessities like completing CE, meeting state requirements, renewing licenses, and more, to the phone already in their pocket.
“Nurses have enough to keep track of, so anything that makes CE easier is a win,” said Cara Lunsford, RN, Vice President of Healthcare Policy and Clinical Solutions, Relias, Nurse.com’s parent company. “You can complete courses from your phone whenever it works for you, get a reminder before your license is due, and even see what events and giveaways we have going on. I’d want that as a nurse myself.”
With a membership, nurses can access Nurse.com’s library of more than 1,000 accredited CE courses and state renewal packages. They can also search for jobs, filtering by location, pay, and specialty, in addition to tracking roles they’ve saved or applied to. The Nurse.com Community is accessible through the app as well, providing a dedicated space where nurses are celebrated and supported throughout the year.
Mobile flexibility has already received positive feedback from nurses. “My favorite feature that Nurse.com offers has got to be the ease of access to a TON of continuing education courses, all to be accessed right from your mobile device!” said Kirsten Anderson, RN, BSN.
“When nurses said they wanted an easier way to take care of CE and keep track of their requirements, we listened,” said Emily Bishop, Vice President of Communities Management, Relias. “The app brings together all the things nurses already rely on Nurse.com for, in a format that fits into their life more easily. And for organizations that partner with Nurse.com, it offers another great way to connect with the Nurse.com community.”
The Nurse.com app is available for download on iOS and Android devices.
