In Session: Practicing Clinical Skills to Prevent Suicide in Adults
The goal of this course is to provide addictions, behavioral health counseling, marriage and family therapy, nursing, psychology, and social work professionals in health and human services settings with an opportunity to apply your existing knowledge to assess and intervene with an at-risk adult.
Identify risk factors and warning signs for suicidality in adults.

State the essential interventions to implement based on the level of identified risk.
Optimizing Patient Outcomes in Acute Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) treatment is costly and requires a multidisciplinary approach. Evidence-based treatment guidelines improve patient outcomes, and it is essential to become familiar with these guidelines to reduce patient mortality. Healthcare team members play a significant role in treating acute HF (AHF), helping to reduce the morbidity and mortality of the disease and decrease the use and costs associated with care. This course aims to educate nurses and nutrition and dietetics professionals in the acute care setting about evidence-based heart failure treatment guidelines.
Describe heart failure, including its classification systems, presentation, treatment, and evidence-based therapies.
Describe strategies for patient self-management.
Overview of Evidence-Based, Suicide-Specific Interventions
It was once assumed that addressing underlying conditions was the best way to treat suicidality. We now know that suicidal people need interventions that directly target suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Suicide-specific interventions will give you the tools to help clients manage suicide risk.
In this course, you will learn about specific evidence-based and research-informed interventions that directly target suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Through case examples, you will gain a better understanding of ways to implement these strategies.
The goal of this course is to provide addictions, behavioral health counseling, marriage and family therapy, nursing, psychology, and social work professionals with knowledge about evidence-based, suicide-specific interventions.
Describe three evidence-based interventions for treating individuals at risk for suicide or who have made a recent attempt.
Summarize the process for completing a safety plan and for reducing access to lethal means.
Recall the factors you should consider when determining what interventions may be needed for suicidal individuals.
Pediatric Patients and Concussion Management
Concussion is a form of mild traumatic brain injury that is common in children and adolescents. Despite increased awareness about the injury, concussion remains under-reported and under-diagnosed. Nurses and Radiology Technicians must be aware of the identification, diagnosis, and management of concussions in pediatric patients.
Identify signs and symptoms of concussions in pediatric patients.
Recognize the evaluation, diagnosis, and management of concussions in pediatric patients.
Recall the complications of concussions in pediatric patients.
Pediatric Problems in Ambulatory Care
Pediatric ambulatory care consists of well-child checks, preventive care, and the treatment and management of acute and chronic health conditions. Nurses provide holistic care to the pediatric patient by synthesizing their nursing assessments with parent/caregiver concerns. Nurses collaborate with the healthcare team to identify and address common pediatric health problems encountered in the ambulatory care setting.
Recognize the causes, diagnosis, and management for common conditions in pediatric ambulatory care.
Recall nursing considerations for common conditions in pediatric ambulatory care.
Reducing Risk of Suicide in Adolescents and Transition Age Youth
Suicide is the second leading cause of death for adolescents and transition age youth (TAY). This course provides an overview of risk factors, protective factors, and warning signs of suicide specific to this population. It also describes suicide assessment strategies and interventions that reduce the risk of suicide in adolescents and TAY.
Identify risk factors, protective factors, and warning signs of suicide in adolescents and transition age youth.
State three assessment strategies to identify suicide risk in adolescents and transition age youth.
Describe interventions that reduce the risk of suicide in adolescents and transition age youth.
SIADH Management
Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) is a condition that occurs when the body produces too much antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which causes fluid retention and electrolyte imbalance. SIADH can have various causes and manifestations and can lead to serious complications if not recognized and treated promptly. This course will provide you with the knowledge to thoroughly assess and manage patients with SIADH in the hospital setting.
Explain the pathophysiology, causes, and diagnosis of SIADH.
Identify the signs and symptoms of SIADH and potential complications.
Review common treatments and nursing interventions for patients with SIADH.
Suicide Prevention in the Acute Setting
This course will provide you with information about the numerous risk and protective factors of suicide. You will learn effective screening approaches you can use to identify elevated risk. You will also learn how to follow a positive screening with an in-depth clinical assessment, including several different models you can use to guide your assessment. The goal of this course is to provide alcohol and drug counseling, marriage and family therapy, counseling, psychology, and social work professionals in health and human services with skills to identify individuals at increased risk of suicide.
Recognize risk and protective factors for suicide.
Explain how to effectively screen to identify individuals at risk of suicide.
Summarize the major components of a comprehensive suicide assessment.
Suicide Prevention Strategies for Veterans
Veterans die by suicide at higher rates than non-veterans and often have unique factors that impact their risk. This course explains factors that specifically increase suicide risk in veterans.
