Hello all! It's that lovely time of year when I have to renew. I would like to know if anyone else has used Medscape to satisfy your CME's. If so, were you audited and all went OK? Free CME's are sounding good right now.
NPinWCH 374 Posts Specializes in Family NP, OB Nursing. Has 15 years experience. Apr 6, 2011 I use Medscape for some of my CE, but I've never been audited. All the CE I have there has been approved by ANCC. As long as the credits are accredited by a nursing organization that your BON accepts you should be fine.
Faeriewand, ASN, RN 1,800 Posts Specializes in med/surg/tele/neuro/rehab/corrections. Has 13 years experience. Apr 6, 2011 So when you renew, you don't have to turn in your CEU's unless your audited? Is that how it goes? I'm up for renewal in August and have been collecting my certificates. Also, I'm a member of ANA so they have plenty of free stuff on their website.
CrunchRN, ADN, RN 4,482 Posts Specializes in Clinical Research, Outpt Women's Health. Has 25 years experience. Apr 6, 2011 I use Medscapes free CE's, and I was audited for my first time ever this last October. I mailed them all in and it was just fine. You do have to mail in the actual certificates (not the listing). At least 50% of mine were from Medscape. This was the Texas BON.
