The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that number of RN jobs will increase by 22.2% by 2018, more than any other occupation, as elderly individuals constitute a larger portion of the population and the demand for health services grows, and as the population ages, the needs for hospice and palliative care increases. Preparing more nurses for certification as hospice and palliative nurses will address this education gap, as the path to certification requires substantial expert content instruction by recognized authorities in the field. This project was designed to develop an innovative online exam preparation course as one possible strategy to increase access to certification exam preparation. 000002926 540__ $$fCC BY 000002926 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000002926 650__ $$aCertification$$016390 000002926 650__ $$aNursing$$023082 000002926 650__ $$aHospice and Palliative Care Nursing$$040536 000002926 650__ $$aNurses$$023079 000002926 650__ $$aPalliative Care$$023495 000002926 650__ $$aAged$$014351 000002926 691__ $$aSchool of Nursing$$041370 000002926 7001_ $$aErickson-Hurt, Carma$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000002926 7201_ $$aMessecar, Deborah$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor 000002926 8564_ $$9a13f325c-c1f5-4630-838c-c50aea63cf7c$$s636928$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/2926/files/3696_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$2b06cbb64558ff52d6179ff00092ff271$$31 000002926 905__ $$a/rest/prod/hh/63/sw/18/hh63sw18c 000002926 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:2926$$pstudent-work 000002926 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
