Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Medscape offers CEU's? Even if it doesn't it is a great free resource!

I frequent this site quite often, but there is a limited amount of Legal/Ethical nursing issues provided. I am speaking of articles required by the LSBN. They require us to submit 20 CEU related to Legal/Ethical issues in nursing within six months of receiving the consent order.

I did find a site: www.nursingcenter.com which provides countless nurse legal/ethical issues, but they are quite expensive! Thanks for your reply!

Nursing Spectrum has some free CEUs related to this very topic. I'm sorry I can't link you to the site, but it would violate TOS. You should be able to find it on google.
