DescriptionThe UNB Certificate in Critical Care program consists of UNB courses some of which are taught by four or five hospital corporations using distance modalities. The program consists of 8 courses (24ch) including a 4 week preceptorship. All courses in the Critical Care Certificate receive credit in the BN/RN Program at UNBF. The Critical Care Courses are designed to be distanced to major regional centres in NB. Some travel will be required in NURS4606 (eg., to Saint John or Moncton). Corporation instructors participate in teaching as part of their agreed contribution in relation to government funding. The clinical course, NURS4606, is integrated with the theory courses. One additional option may be to offer the Certificate for full-time study depending on funding and need.

This full-time (17 week) certificate program for Registered Nurses or BN prepared nurses with at least one year of general nursing experience is designed to provide an intensive, comprehensive standardized critical care program for New Brunswick nurses. For working nurses, funding may be available for salary and replacement purposes.
